Volunteers welcome for first Tree Planting Day at Talla
& Gameshope!
A great moment in restoring the wild heart of the Border
hills takes place on Saturday 30th April.
We will be planting the first trees of what will become a magnificent wooded
upland landscape for future generations to treasure.
We will be planting a few hundred trees, a mixture of aspen,
birch and rowan.
Meet at 10 AM at the
Gameshope entrance to the site. This is
at the East end of Talla Reservoir, Tweedsmuir, off the A 701 between Moffat
and Broughton. We will walk about a mile
up the track to the bothy, and planting will take place around that area. Planting is expected to begin about 11 AM and
finish around 3 PM, though this depends on how many people come along.
All you need is waterproofs, wellies and a simple packed
lunch.
Parking at the site is limited so please car share if at all
possible.
All Are Welcome to help us lay the foundation stones for
nature to build on.

event please email nic@bordersforesttrust.org
