hi barry,

how about planting loads of young trees (whips). after a few yrs growth thin and use the thinned wood for firewood (beech, birch etc). you could plant or throw down wildflower seeds too so they could come up among the trees (eg: primroses; bluebells; wild garlic; fern), or even work a sort of curved pathway using woodbark. when the trees get a bit bigger and develop some foliage, they will create a lovely canopy, under which you will have a fascinating array of wild flowers etc, and a lovely woodland walkway..........your very own little paradise path. :)
