Telling the Stories of Glasgow’s Trees
(and from other places too!)
Our simple project seeks to collect, record, analyze and share stories about trees around Glasgow, and other places. Our tree stories inform city policy, shape university and schools education, help build theory and policy, and – most of all – are beautiful expressions of Glasgow’s deep love for our trees.
Every Tree Tells a Story brings 3 city centre universities together with the city council, schools, active and outdoor educators, and our resident collective of artists, performers and designers. We’ve spent 5 years working together, and are very proud of Every Tree and it’s journey, stories, outcomes, and relationships.
