Last week, a group of volunteers joined forces to plant 450 saplings on Dartmoor, helping to recreate a resilient temperate rainforest for future generations. These are the first trees planted as part of the Duchy of Cornwall's plans to double the size of Wistman's Wood - one of g ancient temperate rainforests. 🌳
