Tree planting at Jubilee Park
Tree Wardens in the Waterlooville area helped the BCTV voluntary organisation plant trees at Jubilee Park recently. Most of the work however, was done by youths from the PETA training organisation, who helped plant some 150 tree whips in various locations of the park. Rachel Moroney from BCTV gave a quick lesson in planting the whips, before about 10 youths and some tree wardens marched off with spades and gloves to do some planting.
