Welcome to our Tiny Forest
This Tiny Forest in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire was planted in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council in March 2024. Local residents and students from the neighbouring school, Highworth Combined, got stuck in and planted all 600 trees and shrubs across the day. This forest was funded by the Forestry Commission, through the Local Authority Treescape Fund, secured by Buckinghamshire council and generous donations from Heart of Bucks Foundation, Funding circle and WFH Foundation.
“There is no medicine you can take that
has such a direct influence on your
health as a walk in a beautiful forest.”
— Dr Qing Li
