Great days with great people doing some truly great tree planting: Tangleha was a success!
Tangleha is a hamlet located in St. Cyrus, Montrose, where we went volunteering a couple of times as the Aberdeen University Woodland Society. Caspar Lampkin and his family, who lives in Tangleha, hosted us for a three-days workshop in November, when we explored a local forest and helped with a project involving oak planting. In February we visited Tangleha again and took part in restoring a nearby woodland planted by Caspar about 15 years ago, as well as planting willows and elders in the surrounding areas to increase biodiversity and tree coverage. Just during this one-day trip in February we managed to plant 300 trees, a significant contribution to Caspar’s project in creating a sustainable forest. Thank you so much for everyone that came to take part, it was such a pleasure seeing this many people taking part in woodland management, and thank you Casper and family for the stay and the wonderful opportunity to learn and get our hands dirty.
