Hello from Scotland

Hi all

Just joined.

I have just purchased a small woodland in Scotland to co-incide with finishing work.

I have a general affinity with the outdoors and a desire to learn as much as possible in the coming months about woodland management and all the skills and knowledge required .

That is code for "an absolute beginner", so be gentle on me.

Hope to speak to you all in the coming weeks.

Kevin

Any assista… Continue

At the neighborhood meeting, the Bortons explained to their neighbors why they conserved their land, what a conservation easemen… Continue
