So this is rather cool!! Somehow the roots of this sycamore have detected a decaying log nearby and have marched over to feed off the decaying log!! Can tree roots 'march over'?! – at Camden Town, London

Don't miss your chance to come and plant with us! Did you know the UK tree planting season is November to February, while trees are in their dormant phase? So you have just weeks left if you want to become a Co-forester this year! 💚🌳

Today I will have drawn 6 years of daily sketches of the weather! 6 years of sitting for at least 5 minutes (rain or shine) and drawing what outside did! I am amazed at myself! #weatherjournal #drawing @NantStudios (video of 28 sketchbooks in a row, one being flicked through)

Where are all the acorns this year? We keep seeing this question - well last year was a 'mast' year meaning a bumper year for acorn production, so this year the trees are essentially taking a break. It's a phenomenal way in which trees work together to help more seeds germinate!
