Planting Ceremony / Nostell Priory and Parkland

Mr Jonathan Adamson, who initiated the planting at Edgerton Cemetery on 26 March 2006, applied for yet another planting. Mr Adamson has been promoting the project in the area where he lives since the first planting in 2006 and has sent a number of letters introducing the Kaki Tree Project to more than a dozen neighboring schools and churches.
Two places among those have expressed their keen interest in the project and following the planting at Fylingdales Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School in 2010, the planting at Nostell Priory and Parkland took place in 2011. Nostell Priory is located in West Yorkshire and has a large park with restaurants and shops. It’s one of the places where many people visit. A few students from Featherstone High School joined the tree planting. Mr. Adamson explained these students and people from the priory about the Kaki Tree Project and then Nayuta Otani, a member of the Kaki Tree Project Executive Committee who came from London for the day, read out the message from Mr. Ebinuma.
The students shoveled in turns to plant the tree and the participants clapped their hands when the planting finished.
After that, they completed a wonderful piece of art by pasting their messages written on the paper that looked like persimmon fruit or leaves on the large sheet of paper on which a big persimmon tree was drawn. They also stood in line outside with their works of drawing which were done beforehand and explained what they did.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. Adamson for his efforts and all the people at PLACE for their cooperation.
