# Event Details - **Event Name**: Dorset Christmas Festival - Pull a Pine - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Nov, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 29 Nov, 2026 at 03:00 pm (+00:00) - **Event Description**: Join us for one of the biggest conservation events in the country. While we love trees, what nature needs is the right trees in the right place. On our precious and rare lowland heathland pine when planted in forestry plantations, quickly take over, blocking out the light and pushing wildlife out as they grow. If allowed the trees will completely take over this very rare environment. By helping us to remove the pine trees, you can help us protect the beautiful heathland for the future and look after an area which some of our rarest wildlife in the UK call their home. Sand Lizards, Smooth snakes, and our specialist heathland birds – Dartford warblers and Nightjars rely on the heathland as their home. By cutting your own pine tree for Christmas you not only be taking home a piece of Arne, but you will be making a real difference to help the RSPB protect this rare and wonderful environment. So, get your wellies on, dig out your Christmas hats and scarves and join us for a special festive day in nature.
