Tree Week
National Tree Week (25 November - 6 December 2009 ) is an annual festival to mark the start of the tree planting season, and a nationwide celebration of trees and woods. National Tree Week is a great chance for communities to do something positive for their local treescape.
Across the Borough there will be lots of opportunities to plant trees. To celebrate National Tree Week, Carrickfergus Borough Council is inviting everyone to help make trees matter by planting and celebrating trees in National Tree Week.
We would like to hear from any group or individual that would like to take part in National Tree Week. Residents and groups who cannot take part in National Tree Week but would like to plant a tree in their own property can download an application or contact Carrickfergus Museum & Civic Centre.
FACT: In 2008/9 Carrickfergus Borough Council planted 8,000 trees in the Borough and a massive 88,000 since 2000.
