What is a Community Tree Nursery (CTN)?
A CTN is a group of local people who grow trees from nearby seeds to sell or give away. Usually run by volunteers as part of a charity or social enterprise, CTNs play a key role in supporting the UK’s supply of home-grown trees—especially rare and locally sourced species.

Here in South Norfolk, we’re lucky to have two CTNs, both supplying trees to the public. As they’re volunteer-run, they’re not always open, so we recommend contacting them directly to arrange a visit.
