As the Platinum Jubilee year arrived in 2022, one of the key symbols was neither a march, performance, nor any kind of spectacle. It was a tree planted through the program titled The Queen’s Green Canopy, which invited people across the UK to participate in planting a tree in honour of the jubilee by joining the call to “Plant a Tree for the Jubilee”.
According to the official Royal Family website, the Queen’s Green Canopy was launched as a nationwide tree-planting initiative to mark Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee and encourage communities, schools, charities, and individuals to take part in creating a greener future. Rather than remaining a distant royal celebration, the campaign gave people a direct way to participate in the moment through local action.
