Released yesterday, here is my review of Alex Garland's #CivilWar on the #BravoAlfredo blog - bravoalfredo.blogspot.com/2024/04/civil-…

As a Trustee of Scotland's Finest Woods, I cannot hide my delight with this decision to move the prestigious awards ceremony to The Scottish Parliament and to coincide with #NationalTreeWeek . The event, more than ever, will be a truly wonderful celebration of Scotland's finest woods.

This is a huge deal for Institute of Chartered Foresters. Technical Membership will open up Institute membership to technically skilled foresters and arboriculturists. Congratulations to Anna Leveridge TechICFor and Abigail Parravani TechICFor. #NurtureGrowThrive

Interested in finding out more about Technical Membership of Institute of Chartered Foresters? Then I'm presenting a #MembersHour on Thursday, 11 April 2024 that will aim to explain all. charteredforesters.org/event/membersh…

4 April 2024. Amy-Jane Beer's 'A Tree A Day' [ISBN 978 1 8499465 20] features Carry Akroyd's Oak - carryakroyd.co.uk/product/oak/ - 'which captures the distinctive murky yellow of new oak leaves, a colour they keep only a few days before becoming flooded with green chlorophyll.'

Nine films were reviewed this month on the #BravoAlfredo blog, including #TheClovehitchKiller , #DunePartTwo , #PulpFiction , #ShallowGrave and #AnatomyOfAFall . bravoalfredo.blogspot.com

What an opportunity! Dresden, the state capital of Saxony, is such a beautiful city - the 'Florence of the Elbe' - and Institute of Chartered Foresters is leading a Study Tour to Dresden and Tharandt in June. charteredforesters.org/event/internat…

Is this the most undervalued and underused component of the UK construction industry? Home-grown, C16 Sitka spruce.

If you are planning to present for Professional Membership Entry ( #PME ) with Institute of Chartered Foresters in the next 2-3 years and are based in Scotland, I would thoroughly recommend signing up for the PME Workshop taking place in Glasgow on 21 March 2024. charteredforesters.org/event/pme-work…

What an impressive shortlist for Institute of Chartered Foresters's Professional Forester of the Year 2024. Any one of these individuals would be a worthy recipient of the award.

Following yesterday's excellent Trees, Planning and Construction conference I'm even more excited for Trees, People and the Built Environment 5 in April in Birmingham (or online). Vitally important that these conversations take place across disciplines. #TPBE5

I'm debunking 'Five myths about membership (of
Institute of Chartered Foresters)' at the Euroforest staff conference in March. #NurtureGrowThrive

Glorious morning for the Arboricultural Association Scottish Conference at Crathes Castle.

This will certainly be an interesting study tour for those involved in Harvesting, Marketing and Operations. I was fortunate enough to attend Institute of Chartered Foresters's last Harvesting & Marketing Study Tour back in 2019. A real knowledgebomb for me. #ForestFriday
