The Long View is bringing together stories and poems, memories and thoughts, all focused on trees. Wherever you live, whatever your memories, we’d love to hear why trees matter to you. The ‘Your Trees‘ section of this website is dedicated to you.

Stories and poems that appear here may also feature in The Long View book and exhibition from the summer of 2017. We will also pass them on to the Woodland Trust as they gather stories about trees for the creation of a new Charter for Trees, Woods and People. Have a browse to see the stories that others have shared, and add your own – after all, who doesn’t have a tree story? Thank you for taking part!
