The Barcham Tree Foundation has launched a new grant scheme. The scheme is the first of an ongoing annual initiative by Barcham Trees, supporting local tree-planting projects to benefit the environment and surrounding community.
Through the grant, the foundation will support up to 10 projects across mainland England, Scotland, and Wales. Each successful group will receive up to 50 trees, between 20L and 65L in size, supplied by the Barcham tree nursery.
The Barcham Tree Foundation Grant is open to all sorts of projects, including creating community orchards, enhancing school environments, and improving local green spaces. However, projects must have a clear positive impact on the environment and local community, and be sustainable in the long term.
Groups must be able to receive the free trees onsite when they are delivered, and organise the planting themselves, with support from Barcham Trees. They must also have the permission of the landowner to complete the project and be willing to share their journey in case studies, photos, and social media updates.

As the foundation works with successful applicants, it will provide expert advice and support to ensure each project has the best trees for the site. This support will help communities improve their green spaces with trees and support.
Applications for The Barcham Tree Foundation Grant are open now and will close on 30th September, with successful projects announced on 19th October. Tree deliveries and planting will happen before 30th April 2027. To apply, interested groups can complete an online form on the Barcham Trees website.
The Barcham Tree Foundation offers communities the chance to improve their green spaces with trees and support, and with the application process now open, schools, community groups, charities, and not-for-profit organisations are encouraged to apply and be a part of this initiative.
