We might not have Tree Amigos to make our park look Christmassy this year but they have kindly donated a Community Christmas tree instead.

We’d love it if local children could bring along a bauble or maybe even a home-made decoration for the tree.

It’s a Norway Spruce that was freshly dug up from Ivy Cottage Christmas tree Farm near Wilmslow a couple of days ago.  Members of FOLP planted the tree yesterday just behind Pets’ Corner near where Tree Amigos usually set up.

According to Trafford’s Tree Unit, it can take a few years to get established in its new home but can then grow up to 3 feet a year.

While you’re taking a look at the tree why not pop into Pets’ Corner and say hello to the residents.
