Spring: The Story of a Season by Michael Morpurgo - digital resources

Celebrate National Hedgerow Week from 5 – 11 May 2025 with Spring by Michael Morpurgo, in partnership with Hodder Press and The Tree Council.

Michael Morpurgo has lived on a farm deep in rural Devon for more than forty years. In Spring, he observes the season unfold around him, as fragile new shoots emerge, buds turn to blossom and grey skies give way to blue.

With new poems and reminiscences about childhood and springs gone by, this is an enchanting memoir of a season from one of the world’s best-loved authors – and Michael’s first non-fiction for grown-ups in more than forty years.

You can find the digital resources provided by the publisher here.

You can also find more digital resources from the Tree Council with helpful info to help you promote National Hedgerow Week to your supporters, customers and online followers, including social media ideas, photos and a template press release.
