On 16 March, the whole etetra team left their desks and computers to pick up spades and trowels for a day. The job was to plant 125 trees in a specially designated, 10-acre field in Yarmouth to offset the company’s carbon emissions produced since its formation in 2005.

We’ve had our whole operation subject to a green audit to evaluate and reduce the environmental impact of our business – and the 125 trees were the result.

Throughout the day, we had expert advice from environmentalist, Tony Ridd of Brighstone-based Landscape Therapy, who showed us how to plant the trees correctly, what to use for mulch and how to stake and protect the trees once they were planted.

If you’re interested in statistics, this is exactly what we planted:

10 English Oak
25 Ash
15 Wild Cherry
15 Silver Birch
15 Rowan
5 Crab Apple
40 Hazel         

We’re also working with clients to help reduce their emissions and offset their carbon footprint by planting more trees in our field. If you’re a company that wants hard-hitting promotional material with practical green sensibilities – then give us a call.
