An initiative of Central Canterbury Farm Forestry

History

Presently the Silverwood history is trapped in books and notes here and there. To a large extent it is Frank’s White’s story – at least during the 1940’s- 1990’s. It will take time, but our intention is to provide you with valuable information relating to trees and farming in Canterbury. There will be general and specific information relating to Silverwood. Please be patient. Thanks.
The map below shows progress on naming trees of significance on Silverwood. This is a work in progress and we need to proof this on the ground yet.
