Welcome to our Tiny Forest

This Tiny Forest, located in Haringey's White Hart Lane Recreational Ground, was planted in partnership with American Express and Haringey Council on Thursday, 27th of October 2022. This forest marks a milestone in the Tiny Forest project, as is the 150th Tiny Forest to be planted in the UK. American Express colleagues from the company’s London and Sussex offices joined community groups and local council representatives to support low-carbon communities. The planting day was also attended by Cllr Mike Hakata, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Climate Action, Environment and Transport. American Express colleagues will revisit the Haringey Tiny Forest next summer, alongside community members, to assist with environmental data collection to help assess the benefits the forest is providing over time.
