The Autumn at Arbor Vitae is all about tree planting, tree guards, hedge planting, spiral guards, tree planting, tree shelters, and we also knocked a shed down (on purpose) to mix things up a bit.  Happily the residents of Shropshire, Staffordshire and our surrounding counties have been busily applying for planning permission on a range of old buildings, and we have kept our resident ecologist whizzing up and down the Welsh Marches.  Our office, specifically, has been a place of great activity in the last few months however, as we have finally updated our website, and launched our pride and joy: the online shop!  We are filling it with the items that we ourselves use most regularly, going with the assumption that those items are probably most useful to you too.  We hope you enjoy it.  And as we’ve not mentioned the farm yet (Lewis is already practicing his ‘show-ring’ walk, and the commercial ewes will be scanned soon), here is a picture of our Whitegrove Trophy, which we excitedly dressed up in our gladrags for and collected at a fantastic evening late in the autumn.Whitegrove Trophy
