Histon and Impington Green Spaces charity is holding a Commemorative Tree Planting Ceremony on Saturday 21st January from 12pm at Long Meadow off Park Lane, Histon.

The event will see the planting of an oak sapling in Long Meadow to commemorate the beginning of the Abbey Fields project. The sapling is descended from the 450-year-old oak on Croft Close Set-aside, so linking the two sites. One day the sapling will be a worthy successor to the huge sycamore that dominated Long Meadow for over a hundred years.

12pm Celebrate with a beverage and nibbles in the meadow
