🌿Working in partnership with @bordersforesttrust, 52,500 trees and shrubs will be planted in the Wild Heart by volunteers to create 80ha of upland native woodland and montane scrub restoring a mosaic of natural habitats. #EarthDay2024 📸The Wild Heart. Credit: Catriona Patience.
📖 Our @tweedwatch education project delivers a range of workshops using the river environment on topics including trees and their importance to the river, water pollution and climate action to support young people’s stewardship of the River Tweed. #EarthDay2024
🌳Our Woodlands for Wildlife and Water project is working with landowners and local communities to plant around 200ha of new native and riparian woodlands. Bio based material tubes provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic. #EarthDay2024 📸Colin Mclean.
Happy #EarthDay ! 🌍
