Great to have staff out from @ScottishPower Transmissions to help us yesterday with tree tube removal at our Knockaird site near Kilbirnie for our Rewilding Woodlands Project funded by @MossyEarth. Six bulk bags filled! A fantastic team - please come back! #CSR#volunteering
Great to host a visit from Duncan from @AlbaExplorers and show him around our nursery and our collections of rare native trees #aspen#montanewillow. We wish them well in their exciting nursery development and woodland creation plans in Glen Prosen!
What a productive day in our nursery and a big step forward! Just received an office container full of new equipment, the site is expanding and our joinery #volunteer Iain is back building pallet staging.
Some of the male Aspens which we planted about 12 years ago are flowering likely stimulated by quite a warm dry spring last year. Still looking for that elusive female flowering. #paintingscotlandyellow
A perfect spring day to start tree planting at Milgarholm Park, Irvine with @WoodlandWakeup delivering woodland activities. Big thanks to the #asylumseekers and youngsters for their efforts
A pleasure and a privilege working tonight with the Renfrewshire Young Carers who are embarking on their #DoEaward. They planted wildflowers and trees at Locher Wood #communitywoodland in the drizzle @RenCAN
With a shout out to NatureScot, @NatureScot , Glasgow and Clyde Valley Green Network, Green Action Trust and Friends of Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park @FClydeMuirshiel , without whom none of this would have happened.
Credit where credit is due.

A perfect autumn day to be back @ClydeCremation in the wilds of the Renfrewshire Heights to be planting the next 4 monthly plots for the Tree For Every Family and Service initiative #rewilding@HorizonCrem
Thanks to the staff @HPE for #volunteering today at Wardlaw, Dalry helping us remove the last few plastic spiral guards and protecting surviving trees with experimental double height biodegradable guards. Bit of a #needleinahaystack situation but we found a few.
Capitalising on the #mastyear managed to collect a good load of Sessile Oak from one of the only populations I know in West Central Scotland. It did meaning hanging of a cliff #Portencross in the driving rain but #happyasachildinasweetshop
Exciting to hear about the recording of the Olive Moth at Brodiclea Woodland #swseic#woollypigcompany#futureforestcompany. Only 5 previous records for #Ayrshire. Its food plant is #Aspen and other poplars. Our Aspen planting in the region will hopefully lead to its expansion.
Great turnout, great food and great weather for our annual nursery barbecue. A way to show our appreciation to all our volunteers, partners and supporters. Sustainable locally sourced meat was supplied by #KillochriesFold#regenerativefarming and the #woollypigcompany
