Description
Dedicate a Tree with Make it Wild
Dedicate a Tree! It will look beautiful in its natural location and will last for many years to come.
No waste, no gift wrapping, and no transport!
What happens when you dedicate a tree in Yorkshire or Norfolk with Make it Wild?
How it works
We will dedicate a tree for you at one of our beautiful nature reserves in North Yorkshire, or our partner sites in Norfolk or near Buxton.
We will protect the tree, and look after it for decades to come.
At Sylvan your tree will be among our young woodland trees.
At Windmill Hill it will be one of the newly planted trees surrounding our developing wildflower meadow.
At Dowgill Grange, your tree will be on the edge of a large new woodland.
At Covenhope Reserve, nr Hingham, Norfolk your tree will be planted near meadows and grasslands, together with other young trees it will connect existing areas of more mature woodland.
At Rowan Tree Farm, near Buxton, Derbyshire, your tree will be among young trees planted in winter 2023/4.
The trees at Chopgate Woodpasture were planted in 2019, and form one of several areas of young woodland in Bilsdale.
Please type in the box the wording you would like on your certificate.
If you would like to add a personalised plaque to be placed next to your dedicated tree, please take a look at our Dedicated Trees with Plaque , and if you would like to dedicate a beautiful old tree in our ancient woodland, again with a plaque, how about our Century Old Tree Dedication?
What you will get
- A young native woodland tree, dedicated for you
- A personalised certificate of dedication, with your chosen wording, sent by email
- You will get a map of the site, showing the location of the tree
- The satisfaction of contributing to the creation of precious habitat for the many species which rely on woodland – thereby improving biodiversity
- You will have the joy of knowing you have dedicated a beautiful tree
- The pride of ‘doing your bit’ to minimise the impact of climate change by planting a tree which will absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
- You may be able to visit your tree (arrangements dependent on location – more info here)
- These dedications last for a minimum of five years. After five years have elapsed, we reserve the right to offer the tree for dedication again. If you would like a ‘forever’ dedication, please choose one of our options with a plaque.
