A new chapter in woodland creation
This year’s planting season has been a remarkable one, with more vibrant new woodland being created and another significant step taken on our journey to grow and protect a huge broadleaf forest for generations to come.
A Forest for everyone
We aim to make the Forest accessible to all - people and wildlife alike.
Purple Emperor in the Forest
This summer, the rare and elusive purple emperor was found in not one but three locations within the Forest.
Autumn walks in the Arboretum
The kaleidoscope of seasonal colours makes the Heart of England Forest Arboretum the perfect place for autumn walks.
The magnificent daimyo oak
While the main focus of the Heart of England Forest is to plant native broadleaf trees, there are many other hidden treasures waiting to be discovered, such as the daimyo oak.
Leaving a legacy
With 3,900 acres already planted there’s plenty for people to enjoy right now, but our long-term goal is the creation and conservation of 30,000 acres of native woodland.
Ringing the changes in birds of prey
With the help of a remarkable trio of specialist volunteers, the birds of prey in the Forest are being closely monitored.
