Mixed clouds over a nearby urban forest. More rain expected today; clearing up by evening.
Tomorrow's forecast is all sunshine. Perfect conditions for our galpals mini golf adventure 😊

Celebrating Love a Tree Day Early! 💚🌳

We couldn’t wait until May 16th to honour our green friends! To mark Love a Tree Day, we gathered around one of Stratford Park’s oldest trees to celebrate our new Tree Management Policy.

This policy outlines our commitment to protecting, caring for, and growing trees across the district. It recognises just how vital they are for our wildlife, climate resilience, and community wellbeing. 🌿

A huge thank you to the volunteers from Stroud Valleys Project, who took a well-deserved break from their work in the Sensory Garden to join the celebration. Together, we’re growing a greener future!

A few weeks ago, near the Sint-Jansberg close to Nijmegen, we found a path that felt like an invitation.

A winding dirt trail leading to a sturdy wooden gate. Beyond it, the path continued into a lush green forest, where sunlight filtered through the canopy in shifting beams. Patches of light moved gently across leaves and ground, shaped by the wind above.

Captured with a Canon 5DSR and Sigma 24–70mm Art, I chose a wider perspective to hold the structure of the scene—the leading lines, the contrast between shadow and light, the quiet depth of the forest beyond the gate.

But the image only tells part of the story.

We stood there for a while. Not photographing. Just listening. The soft rustle of leaves, birds calling from unseen branches, the warmth of sunlight breaking through the shade. A moment that exists beyond what a camera can record.

From a scientific perspective, forests like these create their own microclimates—cooler air, higher humidity, filtered light. It shapes not just the vegetation, but the entire sensory experience.

And that’s the part a photograph cannot fully capture.

So perhaps this image is not the moment itself—but an invitation to imagine it.

Growing food #locally is a #ClimateChange solution

Updated: April 1, 2026

"How are #Maryland gardeners adapting their #gardens and #GreenSpaces to climate change? We posed this question to our colleagues in the University of Maryland College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and they shared examples of everything from #composting and food gardening to #PlantingTrees and #NativePlants, installing #RainGardens, and more!

"Action on climate change is needed on a large scale, and our individual daily actions add up also. Check out these stories and take our quick poll at the end. Tell us how you're doing climate-resilient gardening!"
