Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

...humans write *to* it not about it.

Lovely story of how the city of Melbourne gave their trees email addresses so locals could report problems. Instead, people wrote thousands of love letters to their favourite trees. Sometimes the trees even wrote back.

How utterly charming. This has definitely made me go "awwww"...

Thank you Liz!

I might recommend this to the Friends of Finsbury Park …

Great idea
That is just such a lovely idea.

To whom should I report any suspected dendrophiles in this neighbourhood?  These folk are not merely slightly batty tree huggers, and there are quite a few young trees in need of sapling protection whose email addresses and post codes should not be made public.

I like hugging very old trees best of all.

How fantastic, thanks Liz.

If anyone wants to field the emails I can give any local tree an email address.

I came across this website operated by the Woodland Trust who are asking for people's stories about their relationships with trees (!)
