From Roads to Roots:
Our Tree-Planting Partnership with Busseys
We’re so lucky to have been working with Norfolk’s leading car dealership, Busseys, for the past three years — and together, we’ve planted over 46,000 trees!
OUR SPONSORS AND PARTNERS
Proudly planting roots with Busseys
Busseys isn’t just a big name in cars — they’ve got deep roots in Norfolk too. They’ve proudly been a Main Ford Dealer since 1923, but their story actually began even earlier, as a humble grocers and tea merchants. Over the years, they’ve grown and blossomed into a thriving multi-franchise dealership with six sites across Norfolk, covering every corner of the motor industry.
Busseys tree planting initiative
And here’s where it gets even better — the Busseys Tree Planting Initiative! Launched back in 2007 (long before tree planting was on everyone’s radar), Busseys started offering to plant a tree for every customer who bought a car from them. Since then, they’ve teamed up with a variety of organisations to make Norfolk greener and healthier, one tree at a time.
We’re proud to call them partners — and even prouder of the forests we’re growing together!

JOIN US AND HELP SOUTH NORFOLK BLOSSOM
Our Tree Wardens dig in and leaf a lasting legacy.
Each planting season — from November through to March — our brilliant Tree Wardens and their local communities roll up their sleeves, grab their spades, and get planting! We’re absolutely thrilled to share that during the 2024/25 season, the SNTWN team planted an incredible 2,914 trees, covering a wonderful mix of species and locations.
Here’s a little snapshot of what we achieved together — and we couldn’t be prouder. Thank you to everyone who got involved.

Our Volunteer Gallery
Our wonderful volunteers are often a modest bunch, quietly getting on with amazing work in communities across South Norfolk — but every now and then, we manage to capture a little snapshot of them in action. They don’t always pose for the camera, but when they do, it’s gold!
