AVOB is working to help support the growing demand for care and attention to our valuable heritage the humble but majestic trees of Britain.

Working with Epping Forest district council we are photographing and recording special trees of interest. These include quite rare Black Poplars, Oaks, Beeches, Hornbeams and many other species.

AVOB hopes to make this a wider ranged project and is looking to other councils for their participation and support.
