Care for, improve and communicate about the natural green spaces we manage
Ensure that the Earth Trust Farm, community reserves and its forestry, woodlands, wetlands
and meadows:
- Are well managed in line with annual management plan agreements
- Have an increased profile so that their value is better known
Develop an ecosystems approach to managing the landscape of the Earth Trust Farm where ecosystem service value is identified, described and communicated
Ensure the biodiversity within our care is understood and plans for monitoring indicator species are in place
Develop protocols for engaging volunteers and public facing citizen science programmes linking with partners who store and analyse data
Look after and promote the value of our living plant collections:
- Paradise Wood as a living forest genetic reserve
- Broad Arboretum, a living library of every tree and shrub species native to Oxfordshire
- Neptune Wood 10,000 oak trees that celebrate the major role these trees made in the Battle of Trafalgar
