Town Council
The Town Council support nature recovery and have done a great deal themselves.
Jubilee Woodland
Volunteers planted 150 small trees in the cemetery of St Mary's Church in Redenhall.
These are part of the Jubilee Woodlands which recognise and celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. The trees will be listed as part of the national Green Canopy.
Planters
The Town Council supplied and maintain vibrant eco friendly street furniture. The planters will have seasonal displays throughout the year. Attractive to both people and wildlife, encouraging nature to return to our town centre. Hopefully also enticing people to spend more time in Harleston.
Wildflower Meadow
Revd Canon Nigel Tuffnell … The Gospels are full of stories of the growth of seeds, the choking of thistles, the beauty of lilies, and the fruitfulness of trees. We have the privilege and responsibility to care for the earth and to tread gently on it.
A wildflower meadow provides a picturesque approach from the cemetery to the woodlands. It also provides a habitat for local insects and birds. A place where we can sit and enjoy peace and tranquillity, and appreciate the wonder and benefits of nature.
