Every tree is tracked, with a location you can visit, and regular updates from the site through dashboards, field updates, and shareable content.
Restoration is not a single moment. It takes planning, planting, aftercare, monitoring and long-term stewardship. Contributions support the wider work needed to help these landscapes recover and keep improving over time.
Restoration you can follow over time. See the incredible biodiversity returning to our restored habitats as documented by our field team.
Restoring nature is about much more than putting trees in the ground. Healthy woodlands, wetlands and peatlands help lock away carbon, improve water systems, strengthen soils, and create space for wildlife to return. They also make landscapes more resilient over time.
They provide a diverse habitat for animals and rare plants, and they support the pollinators we depend on. They prevent flooding, and strengthen our resilience to drought. They store huge amounts of carbon, and even improve our water quality. You can read a lot more about meadows and peatland on our website.
Assess the landscape, agree the right restoration approach, and prepare the site for long-term success.
Raise or source suitable native trees and plants for the conditions of each project.
Ready the site for planting and habitat work, taking account of soils, water and existing ecology.
Carry out the planting and restoration work on the ground, from woodland creation to wider habitat improvement.
Help early planting establish through guards, maintenance, weeding and practical site protection where needed.
Go beyond trees alone by improving the wider conditions wildlife needs to return and thrive.
Track how the site develops over time and capture the milestones, changes and lessons from the field.
Turn restoration progress into clear updates, dashboards and stories that supporters and partners can follow.
Support the ongoing management needed to keep the project healthy, resilient and valuable for years to come.
Here's what's happening at the 8 locations Future Forest helped restore, straight from our team on the ground.
Every contribution supports a real UK restoration project. We've planted over 1.5 million predominantly native trees and restored 1500 hectares of meadows, wetland and peatland.
