Hoping that the next viral trend is planting and protecting urban trees!

Look after yourself in these shorter days - take a walk in your local park to admire the autumnal colours 🍁🍂

"The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit." - Nelson Henderson

It was great working with residents and volunteers today, planting trees with @treesforcities.bsky.social in Sipson Meadow. #Hillingdon

Looking for something fun to do on the weekends? Join one of our planting days 🤗🌳 If you're based in Hillingdon, come along - everyone's welcome! www.treesforcities.org/sipson-meadow

I don’t have all the answers, but one of them is definitely ‘more trees’ 🌳

We're excited to get stuck into planting once again 🌳 We hope you get the chance to give back to the environment and plant your own tree this year!

Seeing the most vibrant colours on leaves brings me so much joy!

Sometimes you need to pause and look up, you never know what beauty you'll miss 💚

I’m tired. Like ‘crawl into the hollow of a tree and don’t come back out ‘til spring’ tired...

The hill I’d die on: Access to urban nature shouldn’t be dictated by how much you earn.

I’m not “into the environment”, I AM the environment. YOU’RE the environment. We’re ALL connected to *waves hands wildly* this!

Here's proof that you can protect existing trees around redevelopment 🌲 We planted these Dawn Redwoods on Gaunt Street, Elephant and Castle, in 2006. We love that these trees were protected and prioritised during redevelopment of this area over the years!

Give this post a like if you appreciated trees this summer 🌳👍

"The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you don't expect to sit."

Another reason why trees are important is that the doggies love the tree shade 🐶🍃

I don’t want AI data centres - I want more green infrastructure in cities!

“It’s just a tree” It’s not just a tree, it’s one we planted 13 years ago and now we can see it from our office 🥺💚

Nobody: Me looking around: needs more trees

If you're out and about today, make sure to take a quick break under some tree shade to cool down 🍃 (and also stay hydrated!)

It's a beautiful day, so of course, all I'm thinking about is sitting in the shade of a huge tree and reading a nice book 💓

We're not just growing trees, we're growing thriving, resilient communities - brought together through the shared act of caring for our urban nature 🌳💚 Watch the full video: treesforcities.org/greening-communities Thank you to @qasaalom.bsky.social and @earthminutes.bsky.social 😊

Walked past a tree today and she told me you look cute 🥰

💥Cities are loud💥 but trees can help make them quieter! A busy London street can be 80 decibels, which is loud enough to have a negative impact on your well-being. 🌳 Trees dampen sound by absorbing, deflecting and scattering sound waves. Thanks trees 😌

Your child self would think you’re so cool for still loving trees 🌳💚

Trees literally release ✨feel good chemicals✨ so when we tell you to go hug a tree, it’s for your own good.

This is a must-watch with OutsideWithLira exploring Croydon streets and appreciating tree-lined streets 🌳 If you're a nature lover, you'll relate to her enthusiasm 😊

Just being real here, if you love trees, you really should be following us. We’re tree-licous or tree-tastic, oh wait, treeMENDOUS yeahh that's the one 😊

It’s Thank A Tree Day! ✨ It’s not really, I made that up, but I reckon you’ll feel good saying thank you to the next random tree you see. Give it a pat too, they’ll like that 👍

Loving how these two trees we planted in 2006 have been protected and prioritised during redevelopment of the area 🌳💚🌳

Another bank holiday weekend which means... *drumroll* MORE TIME TO STARE AT TREES!!! 🥳🌳

Me walking down any random street: could fit a tree there, there, two there, there, there-

Stop scrolling, have a tea, do some yoga, do tree pose, keep doing tree pose, become a tree, live the rest of your life in tree happiness

Some #MondayMotivation with a before and after from a project circa 2009 🌳

Great things take time ⌛️ (we planted these in 2007)

Hot take, and hear me out here... we plant more trees?

Oh ok so when someone lays under trees in the countryside it’s called ‘forest bathing’ but when I do it under street trees in a town centre it’s called ‘being a public nuisance’ 😕

We planted this cutie patootie in 2012. She’s got a little lean going on, but she’s still growing strong.

Monday thoughts 💭 If you could create a green space ANYWHERE - where would it be? We’ll go first: Piccadilly Circus - turn that chaos junction into a garden 🌷

Born to frolic amongst the trees, forced to say ‘happy Friday!’ every week

I don’t have all the answers, but one of them is definitely ‘more trees’ 🌳🌳

Oh hello there 😍

Start your day by hugging a tree. Keep hugging that tree. End your day hugging that tree. Meld with tree. Be tree. 🌳🌳🌳

Highly recommend turning off your phone and taking a walk in nature this bank holiday weekend. I think we all need it 🍃

MAY the trees be ever in your favour...
