The Trees of Light Tree Nursery in Southowram, Halifax is situated on a disused quarry owned by Marshalls plc. Marshalls have provided help in many ways both at the start of the project and on an ongoing basis. Their help and support is much appreciated..

Southowram Horticulture and Allotment Association

Trees of Light have given a talk to the Southowram Horticulture and Allotment Association, this was followed by a visit to the Tree Nursery. Some of their members have helped at the nursery and also collected tree seeds from the village of Southowram.

They have recommended us to volunteers, helped with grant applications and taken part in volunteering days.

In May 2009 we held an Open Day and the Mayor of Calderdale planted a Commemorative Alder Tree at the entrance despite the torrential rain!
