Planting trees on your land is one way you can help combat climate change and the biodiversity crisis. But you need to plant the right tree in the right place to make a positive impact on the environment. To help you, we’ve created a Woodland Opportunity Plan.

There are grants of up to 100% available for tree planting and we are looking for sites across the local area. If you are interested please contact the Nidderdale National Landscape Woodland Officer at [email protected].

The plan is about quality over quantity

Because of the special character of Nidderdale National Landscape, not every part of the landscape is suitable for planting.

These maps help us determine areas where planting trees could be of less benefit or even have a negative impact.

By identifying these areas, we can concentrate our tree planting support on places where increasing tree cover will be most beneficial – making sure we get the right tree in the right place.
