As part of our commitment to conservation and responsible arboriculture, OK TREES works closely with The London Wildlife Trust..
Recent projects at Darlands Conservation Trust involved the careful coppicing of overhanging trees along the pond bank opening up the edge for safe de-sludging. This essential ecological management improved water quality, encouraged healthier aquatic life and enhanced the overall habitat for wildlife. Our team understands the specialist requirements of working in sensitive environments, ensuring all works are completed with minimal disturbance and in line with best conservation practices.
Our ecological and habitat management services cover London and surrounding areas, including Finchley, Hampstead, Highgate, Belsize Park, St John’s Wood, Primrose Hill, Barnet, Hadley Wood, Totteridge, Whetstone and St Albans.
