Tomorrow morning we will be weeding out beech saplings from Blairbeg wood, and also fundraising, by serving teas at the farmers market in the village hall. We are meeting at 9:45 at the woodbank, opposite the church, to sort who goes where. If anyone is able to bring some home baking for our fundraising, that would be wonderful.🙂https://maps.app.goo.gl/i7ZdcqNyycS5yrkN7

🎄 Festive Community Wood Update! 🎄

Thanks to funding support from GURCA, Craigmonie Woodland Association were able to enlist David Ferguson and his mighty log splitter to turn the trees felled last year in Blairbeg Wood, plus extra timber kindly donated by the Woodland Trust into firewood, now safely seasoning in the wood bank for next winter. 🔥🌲

A huge thank you to the incredible CWA team who turned out for a full day of hard work feeding the machine 💪✨.
And those same CWA Christmas elves have been out and about this week delivering bags of firewood to some of our older residents 🎁❤️.

We still have plenty of seasoned wood ready to burn this winter, and we’ll be arranging another uplift day in January.

❄️🔥 Watch this space for details! 🔔
