The public planting days at Shakespear for 2024 are:

• Sunday 9 June 2024
• Saturday 22 June 2024
• Sunday 14 July 2024

This year groups of 10 or more may also have their own planting days by arrangement, preferably during the week. Please complete this form to propose a date (this is not for public planting days).

There is no need to register. Planting is from 10am to 1pm, and followed by a free BBQ.  Follow signs at the park entrance to planting site.  Dress for the weather and wear closed footwear suitable for a muddy slope.  Please watch the weather forecast,  but planting usually goes ahead regardless of the weather (if in doubt check our facebook page). Gloves and spades are provided, so please leave your spade at home to reduce the biosecurity risk from transferring soil .
