Four days, 1400 trees, 13 people (not all at once! Four days, 1400 trees, 13 people (not all at once!) and 8 dogs! We’re completely overwhelmed by the hard work and enthusiasm of all our helpers - family, friends and volunteers who came over the 4 days, some with their dogs, to plant our new wood. A great socially distanced activity! Just a couple of hundred left to do - need to buy them first - and some more canes to support them, and we’re done! All are native species, sessile oak, willow, hazel, rowan, cherry, whitebeam, crab apple, Scots pine, and blackthorn. Thanks to @daera.ni for the Small Woodland Grant!

Just putting off taking down the last Christmas de Just putting off taking down the last Christmas decorations, the beautiful late afternoon light today, made me want to photograph everything!

Get in touch if you would like to come and see the barns and surroundings, and have a chat about how you envisage your big day, or call us or email.

Upside down trees? But in fact they’re not - it Upside down trees? But in fact they’re not - it was so still today at the pond that the reflections were perfect! We’re looking forward to seeing outdoor activity groups sometime soon! Probably a bit too cold for raft building but paintball, archery, orienteering etc can all happen from next weekend! Group size depends on activities chosen, and social distancing has to be observed, but getting outdoors is so important!
