The Oxford Botanic Garden & Arboretum
The Harcourt Arboretum is a living collection of rare and beautiful trees, set within a unique mosaic of woodlands, coppices, meadows and ponds that provide a rich habitat for native wildflowers, animals and insects. As part of the University of Oxford, the Arboretum is a centre for research and conservation and staff work with conservation scientists around the world to collect seeds from endangered trees. Many are then grown at the Arboretum, helping to ensure species survival.
Mila funds the Mila Arborist Apprentice, a two-year apprenticeship programme at the Harcourt Arboretum. Mila also made a donation towards upgrading the network of paths around the Arboretum.
