We're volunteers who grow trees at the Hackney Community Tree Nursery and plant them out in Hackney’s parks and green spaces. Email: hello@treemusketeers.org.uk

Millfields Users Group is holding its annual plant stall in South Millfields Park (opp Millfields Coffee) on Sunday. Come along and pick-up herbs, climbers, fruit bushes, house plants, ground cover, shrubs…. All proceeds go to the free, community, Tree Circle Cinema.

We're wrapping up the Winter planting season. Thank you to all the volunteers who took part! The song is the still unreleased ‘watermelon skies’ by BIN RICH, fellow tree musketeers & creatures of the concrete forest! Made from the samples of our very own Hackney parakeets & morning marsh afterglows.

Another amazing planting day on Gascoyne estate, thank you to the incredible beings who came through, always a delight to see you wonderful locals get involved with keeping our beloved borough so beautiful. Thank you for spending your Saturday with us, always an honour 💜🌳 #Londontrees #Plantatree

We had a great time on Sunday, we felt as blessed as the trees to have so many people join us in our wassail. 🍎 Big thanks to the amazing performances by Morris folk choir & the Feorin band. Join us next year for our #Wassail, or our next event this year will be our Open day on the 10th May.

We had a great Partnership Launch with Hillier’s last week and we can't wait to share Tree growing & Tree caring knowledge with them. We had the perfect weather to plant some of HIllier's trial climate resistant trees on the marshes, the wonderful artist Stik came along to plant one of the trees.
