17th October we had 9  volunteers from the Royal Bank of Scotland with Chris from The Conservation Volunteers. They built 2 compost heaps, repositioned  our gate post, moved some number one over the drive way and cut down some leylandii. Great effort and thanks to all.

On 23rd October we had a Tree Identification Walk lead by Emily Wadsworth from the Central Scotland Forest Trust. We had a great turn out and a lovely walk through our woodland. She identified 20 plus species for us and gave us lots of information about them. A really lovely afternoon.

Thursday we have 10 volunteers from the Royal Bank of Scotland coming down with The Conservation Volunteers. These are really enjoyable days and worth popping in for either part or all of the day,10 til 4 pm.

We are getting together a Woodland Management Team do you want to join?

As I say we are putting together a woodland management team. TO allow this to happen we have arranged a Tree identification afternoon with Emilie Wadsworth, from Central Scotland Forest Trust on either the afternoon of the 16th or 23rd October. Please fill in the doodle poll if you want to join us:http://doodle.com/na9sw9v6fbtvcyv4

The second training opportunity is a course over three days looking at defining and mapping our woodland then deciding what we want to use the woodland for, planning how to do this and deciding on a vision for the future. We are providing this training free to our volunteers but will need to ask for a commitment to help with the woodland management over the coming years, as this course is being funded by Foundation Scotland. If you would like to join us and the team please fill in the Doodle Poll below:http://doodle.com/4rk7nkwtcrpmxyv8
