Tiny Forest Tree Survey - Earthwatch Europe

Thank you to everyone who took part in the Tiny Forest Tree Survey!

The Tiny Forest Tree Survey took place during 12 – 20 October 2024. It is a simple survey, measuring and identifying trees at the 250+ Tiny Forests across the UK.

We called on everyone who lives near a Tiny Forest to get involved and help us understand how Tiny Forests grow.

What is a Tiny Forest?

A Tiny Forest is a dense woodland planted in a small area, recreating the natural structure of a forest in miniature. They are planted using the Miyawaki method developed in Japan.

Tiny but powerful, they bring the benefits of a woodland into the heart of urban communities. We want to build more scientific research on the Miyawaki tree planting method and its effects when used for Tiny Forests in urban settings. Tiny Forests form a network of living laboratories across the UK.

Citizen scientists (like yourself!) help us to understand how Tiny Forests reconnect people with nature, enhance our wellbeing, tackle the impacts of climate change and provide nature-rich habitat for wildlife.
