A Tiny Forest is a dense, fast-growing woodland planted with a diverse mix of native trees and shrubs, typically the size of a tennis court. These mini forests are planted in urban areas to bring more nature to people's doorsteps. Using Tiny Forests as a network of living laboratories, we are working with communities to monitor and understand the environmental and social benefits that Tiny Forests provide in urban areas, across different geographical areas and demographics.​ We'd love for you to get involved, explore your local Tiny Forest and help us collect this valuable data.
