Why create a new woodland? Woodlands and trees are essential to life and have numerous benefits for both wildlife and people. • Provide shelter • Absorb and store carbon • Generate oxygen • Provide fuel and food • Rejuvenate and stabilise the soil • Create habitats for wild flora and fauna Mayfields trees Mayfields are working with the Wildlife Trust to ensure a programmed planting of native trees, creating a woodland habitat in keeping with the local area. To ensure the long term health of the wood we have a planned management programme for our trees. This will entail trimming, lopping and even cutting down trees to ensure an ongoing cycle of growth. To avoid any possible upset to families, and for the benefit of all, trees will not be planted on individual graves but will be planted around them.
