Trees of Tregaron: Stewarding Our Historic Urban Woodlands

Tregaron boasts thousands of trees in our woodlands. Our tree canopy offers cooling shade in the hot summer months, homes and migration spots for birds, and ground for fungi and other biodiverse plants to take root. Over the past twenty years of the Tregaron Conservancy’s history, we have planted over 300 trees, with a focus on enhancing our native ecosystem. 

As part of the Conservancy’s ongoing forest management and in anticipation of our 20th anniversary, we commissioned arborists from Davey Tree to identify, evaluate, and tag over 800 trees across the Tregaron landscape. The arborists carefully recorded the species, location, and condition of each tree, creating a living inventory of our historic grounds. The inventory includes both canopy and understory trees, including those recently planted by the Conservancy. The map and inventory are valuable tools in the Conservancy’s ongoing work to care for our trees. 

This project highlights the extraordinary diversity of Tregaron’s woodlands. Spanning 13 acres, our Conservancy is home to well over 600 native trees, representing at least 72 unique species.
