Join us for the first Field Good Friday of 2026 in March, when we will come together to plant native trees and plan the year together.

This months environmental education workshop will give you the opportunity to be part of important ecosystem restoration work on the land at Common Knowledge with a tree planting workshop led by a facilitator from HomeTree, a local nature restoration charity - where will will plant almost 500 native trees to create a mini woodland and biodiverse hedgerow.

The tree planting will be followed by a classroom session and opportunity for previous Field Good Friday participants to meet new joiners to come together to contribute feedback and brainstorm ideas to help shape and inform the content of this years plans.

We look forward to welcoming you to an afternoon of exploration, education, and community connection!
