Afforestation Beauvoir-en-lyons (76)

Le Projet

 The project is a 1 ha afforestation project in the south-east of the Seine-Maritime department in Normandy, with the aim of planting trees on a small abandoned agricultural plot, as an extension to existing woodland.

• Plantation of 8 deciduous species, an essential diversity in the immediate proximity of a Natura 2000 site: Sessile oak and Downy oak, Hornbeam, Norway Maple and Field Mapple, Small-leaved Lime as well as forest fruit trees such as the Wild Service-tree and the Service-tree, a tree that has become rare despite its benefits for biodiversity. These species are adapted to the context of the site (soil and climate) and to the evolution of climate change.
