Tree Nursery & Greening

Entrance gardens, nursery stock and New Rest

Stanford Conservation looks after plantings that keep the village green: the gardens at the R43 entrance circle, trees and hedges along Daneel Street, and a tree nursery that supplies indigenous stock for public spaces.

In May 2026, more than 50 residents planted over 3,000 yellow chasmanthe bulbs, generously donated by a local flower farm, in the gardens next to the village entrance and within the R43 circle, so the entrance to Stanford will bloom each winter.

New Rest. Stanford Conservation has provided trees for a community greening initiative in New Rest.

More coming soonNursery & New Rest Stock lists and New Rest greening plans.
