We have 100 boxes of kit to send out to educators wishing to get involved. BIFoR in a box (BiB) activity provides schools with the equipment and instructions to measure tree growth using Dendrometers over a period of time. Through this link schools will be able to share their data with other schools projects to develop across the region and beyond.
