A sunny Saturday planting at #Formonthills last week๐ŸŒฑ

Trees were planted with a new deer deterrent spray - no plastic tubes in sight! We look forward to monitoring the results ๐Ÿ‘

๐Ÿถ Who's a good boy?! Baxter is! We were loving being at #Formonthills #Glenrothes last week but a bit annoyed it was to talk about #DogFouling ๐Ÿ’ฉ

Please pick up after your dog so we can all enjoy our shared spaces. It's simple - bag it and bin it โœ”๏ธ

๐ŸŒง๏ธ Bit of a rainy one last week but that didn't deter volunteers from #Kinclaven and #Formonthills Wood from mucking in!

๐ŸŒณ They planted 9๏ธโƒฃ0๏ธโƒฃ trees and removed x2 bulk bags of old tree guards in one session.

๐Ÿฐ A+ for effort, rewarded with homemade cake from one of the volunteers - yum!

Ermine moth caterpillars are back on the bird cherries at our #Formonthills Wood in Fife.

Their striking webs hide hundreds and sometimes tens of thousands of the insects. They can give individual trees a sinister ghostly look, but are thankfully harmless.
