GET INVOLVED PLANT A TREE 

Commemorate The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and honour Her Majesty's reign by joining The Queen’s Green Canopy Rutland.

The Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) is a tree planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022 which invites everyone across the UK to plant trees. Following the death of Her Majesty the Queen, and the wishes of His Majesty the King, the initiative will be extended to the end of March 2023 to give people the opportunity to plant trees in memoriam to honour The Queen.

GET INVOLVED

Her late Majesty served us steadfastly for 70 years. It would therefore be particularly appropriate to create a lasting, permanent Rutland Living Memorial to Her Majesty. By planting 40,000 British grown trees – one for each person living in Rutland – from October, when the tree planting season begins, through to the end of the Jubilee celebrations in 2023. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to come together as a community, to reduce our impact on climate change, and protect and enhance our county for generations to come.
