Black Bourton Parish Council Update.

Last year the Parish Council decided that it would like to mark the 75th anniversary of VE Day by planting 75 trees at different locations around the Village. Unfortunately, due to the Covid Pandemic, and subsequent lockdowns, we were unable to complete this project by the 8th of May 2020.
In the interim period the Parish Council has had to overcome not just the Covid issues but other issues such as the escalation in the price of Trees.
We are pleased to announce that the last of the 75 trees was planted on the 28th February 2021 along the Burford Rd.
We would also like to thank everyone that has been involved in this project in whatever shape or form, and for the fantastic donations that have been given to be able to complete this mammoth task.
Not only will the trees add some additional colour and interest to the Village they become a haven for wildlife and help contribute to reducing our carbon footprint.
