Trees For Life

Getting hands on in the tree nursery 🌱 Jilly first joined us as a Rewilding Week volunteer before returning year after year to support the work in our tree nursery. 🌳 Drawing on her experience with community orchards and pruning, Jilly has contributed to everything from tending to our twinflower bed to sharing knowledge that has helped our understanding of pruning in the aspen seed stand.

“What’s not to love? Joining in the valuable work at Trees for Life nursery is deeply rewarding. It’s great to know you’re helping directly with reforesting the Highlands, and on the way learning new skills, learning about the environment and all in a relaxed and beautiful setting. Volunteering at Trees for Life has enriched my life. “ - Jilly

Volunteers like Jilly are helping grow the next generation of native trees, while becoming part of a community working to restore nature in the Highlands. Thank you so much!🌳

Wondering what goes on behind the scenes of a beaver reintroduction project? 🦫Dedicated volunteers are helping welcome and monitor beavers as they return to the landscape. Today, we’re highlighting two incredible local volunteers 👇

"Thanks to Malcolm and Ron for all of their tireless work supporting the beaver reintroduction project. From setting up trail cameras and tracking beavers across their new landscape, to giving local talks and speaking to people out on the water, they have contributed so much. Thank you." - Tobias, Beaver Project Officer
