Busseys marks a century of community tree planting

Busseys is marking its 100th year as a trusted main Ford Dealer in Norfolk with the launch of the Busseys Community Tree Grant, a £10,000 initiative to support tree planting, part of it work with Norfolk County Council to promotoe net-zero goals and green spaces for all.

In 2007, Busseys embarked on a mission to plant a tree for every car it sold.

“Our commitment to sustainability extended to partnerships with various organizations, such as the East of England Apples and Orchard Project, where we supplied fruit trees to schools,” the dealership said, adding that its collaboration with Norfolk County Council and the Woodland Trust allowed it to plant woodlands in North Burlingham and South Walsham, contributing to nature recovery and ecosystem services.

“The 2020s are heralding the era of electric vehicles, marking a significant shift toward sustainability and environmental responsibility. Busseys has embraced this transition, focusing on electric vehicles and community tree planting to create a greener future for Norfolk.”
