Welcome to our Tiny Forest
This Tiny Forest in Biggleswade, Central Bedfordshire was planted in partnership with Central Bedfordshire Council and Biggleswade Town Council in March 2024. Local residents 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 Central Bedfordshire Council.
