Exmoor National Park Authority

Woodland is integral to the many special qualities which help define the character of the National Park. Our tree nursery in Exford is an important part of efforts to increase tree cover on the moor, supporting our ambitions for nature recovery and helping woodlands and landscapes become resilient to climate change and diseases.

Volunteers are a vital part of the support team for the nursery, working along staff from our Woodlands Team. We have a range of volunteer opportunities for people to learn more about trees, assist with seed collection & propagation, help with day-to-day activities at the nursery and with aftercare of newly planted trees in our local woods.
