Hilfield to Celebrate Centenary by Planting 100 Oaks

By admin in Latest News on November 5, 2021

2021 is the centenary of Hilfield Friary. What better way to mark such a significant event in the life of an organisation than doing something that will have a positive impact for the next 100 years and beyond? That’s why we are planting ‘100 Oaks for 100 Years’. The trees will be planted as part of our new wood pasture. This is a very valuable habitat, home to many special species. In 100 years it will begin to mature, our gift to 2121!

We have invited 100 groups and individuals who represent something of the past 100 hundred or next 100 years at Hilfield to come and plant one of our centenary oaks.

Come and help us to celebrate on 18th December.  The day will start at 11am with a Centenary Service.  There will be food, entertainment and an opportunity for everyone to share their stories of the Friary whilst planting and blessing the trees.

Join us for all or part of the day.  No need to book.  Check for updates to the day on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/HilfieldFriary and the Hilfield website Home page https://www.hilfieldfriary.org.uk/ or contact Suzi on 01300 341345 email hilfieldssf@franciscans.org.uk
