I  wouldn,t mind a few for my own garden ....I am trying to grow from seeds I,ve collected myself ...it,s fun.....but takes a very long time !   They have a beautiful site and some great ideas for gifts....like the leaf identification Swatches . Its great what they are doing for our schools !
Trespassers will be composted !

Our local infants school received the free copse trees in early December;  children from this school visit our allotments regularly and we went to the school to help the children plant them in the school grounds.  I think its a lovely idea to provide schools with sapling trees.
