The English Oak – Quercus Robur

Introducing the English Oak – Quercus Robur

Carbon offsetting for SME, Corporate and Charity Organisations

To help your company’s sustainability goals while keeping costs low, National Canopy’s UK tree planting project is an excellent option. English Oak trees – Quercus Robur, are available for purchase in singular and bulk quantities. You can begin or continue your journey in offsetting carbon from the atmosphere without losing any extra downtime from your day-to-day work activities or resources.

The English Oak tree is not only historically iconic but it also provides a long-lasting investment opportunity. Its hardiness and ability to thrive in almost any soil or climate brings long-term assurance to any carbon offsetting impact that you wnat to make in the atmosphere.

The trees have a high density wood that grows harder and stronger year-by-year, making them a very effective tool for capturing carbon. In fact, in proportion to their weight, English Oak trees are recommended as the best species for achieving sustainability goals such as the reduction of carbon footprints.

_{What we can provide for your tree planting initiative}

When you work with us, you can opt to take care of your chosen trees at your own location, or you can let us do it for you with our Tree Management and Holding Service (TMHS).

It’s easy to think that planting trees is a simple task, however that is just the starting point. To guarantee the success of a tree planting project, long-term management is necessary. We offer a Tree Management and Holding Service to accommodate this, which gives you the option to leave the trees in our care until you have the land and time to manage them yourself. Alternatively, when we plant each new woodland, we can offer you the opportunity of a location where you can perminently plant your trees.

About the English Oak Tree – Quercus Robur

This impressive broad leaf tree is a sight to behold; its distinct, dark brown trunk and deep ridged bark along with its winding branches combine to form a work of art. During the Spring and Summer months, the Oak Tree is alive with bright green leaves and stunning yellow hanging catkin-style flowers. The round-lobed leaves of the tree are 4-5cm deep and have smooth edges, while the acorns or “oaknuts” can reach 2-2.5cm long and are encased in a tough shell. As Summer ends, the leaves turn into what can only be described as a kaleidoscope of golden tinges, yellow and golden brown, completing a cycle of beauty that lasts all year long.
