Community Treescapes in London
Energy Garden’s Trees programme
Our Treescapes transform London’s overlooked spaces into thriving hubs of natural discovery and community exchange. Through collaborations with community groups and project partners that range from local authorities to National Rail, Energy Garden is creating nature-rich spaces that help Londoners experience the benefits of greener, healthier, and more resilient neighbourhoods.

“Energy Garden have built a really good community around the Canonbury Forecourt – they’ve brought vibrancy and colour to the space and are really up for working together with us to make a resilient tree scape in the area”
Francisco White, Assistant Tree Officer, Islington Council

“In the future I’d like more projects like this in the neighbourhood – with people from all backgrounds and ages coming together and doing something manual. Doing something with our hands is really good for the soul. It also means that when people walk through their streets, they feel proud and want the best for it”

Our Approach
Each of the Community Treescapes we develop champions biodiversity, Tree Equity & community stewardship, and climate resilience.
Our projects reflect the site-specific needs of the context we are working in – this means that project typologies vary from community orchards and climate resilient groves to dense pocket forests.
To ensure local communities’ priorities and cultural context are reflected in our Treescapes, Energy Garden engages residents across design, planting, and aftercare of each project.
