Welcome to our Tiny Forest

This Tiny Forest in Haringey was planted in partnership with Haringey Council and Keir Transportation in March 2024. Children and parents from Rowlands Hill Nursey and Children Centre, and students from Primary and St Michael at Bowes Church of England Junior School, Enfield, got stuck in and planted the trees and shrubs across the morning. The forest was then completed by local residents and corporate volunteers from Keir Transportation. This forest was funded by the Forestry Commission, through the Local Authority Treescape Fund, secured by Haringey Council and through donation from Keir Transportation.
