World leaders will be taking home a piece of National Forest from the G7 Summit
It would come as no surprise if Downing Street and The White House were to be singing the praises of the National Forest after the G7 Summit in Cornwall.
That is because the National Forest and UK Government have presented G7 finance ministers with wooden plaques as a tree planting pledge to celebrate the leaders' summit at Carbis Bay this weekend.
And the presentation also included locally made honey.
Specimen trees honouring each of the G7 countries, plus the EU delegation, will be planted in the National Forest this Autumn.
A social media post from the National Forest reads: "Our pledge to plant these trees in the National Forest is a fitting demonstration of our commitment to a better future.
"The eight specimen trees will be a Wellingtonia, Japanese Red Cedar, Sweet Chestnut, Italian Alder, North American maple, Spruce, English Oak and Beech."
The National Forest has also presented ministers with honey North West Leicestershire produced by David McDowell - otherwise known as The Bee Farmer.
