On Saturday 5th December, 11am-12noon, Ward Homes is inviting local residents to join them and others across the country to participate in ‘Tree O’Clock’, a national event promoted by the BBC, that attempts to set a Guinness world record to plant the highest number of trees in one hour. 

As part of National Tree Week (25th November – 5th December), Ward Homes will be planting trees at its developments across Kent to help beat the previous record of 653,143 trees.

Nick Fenton, Managing Director of Ward Homes, said: “We see our job as not just building new homes, but creating superb living environments and communities that enhance the landscape and, where possible, open up new space.  Planting new trees and shrubs - and preserving existing ones where we can – is a key part of that.

“As always, we will be planting trees indigenous to each area. We would be delighted if people would like to come down and help us in our task to set this very worthwhile world record.”

‘Tree O’Clock’ events will be taking place at Eden Village in Sittingbourne, Pavilion Place in Snodland and Halstead Place in Sevenoaks.  Goody bags will be given out on a first come, first served basis.

Homes available at Eden Village include two, three and four-bedroom homes with prices starting from £148,950. For more information contact the Sales Centre at Bluebell Drive, Eden Village, Sittingbourne, Kent ME10 4EL, open daily from 10am to 6pm.
