Great day finishing up our second stakeholder workshop in the north Penines exploring treescap expansions scenarios in local #landscapes. Fascinating chat picking a part co-developed models. The STAND project team was awesome! #trees #forests #nature #NetZero

It's a pricking out extravaganza at the nursery as all the Alpine Blue-Sow-Thistle and Elm seedlings have germinated. Our wonderful volunteers, Olly and Kathryn, were busy today getting all the seedlings in their own pots 🌱 @NatureScot @ScotGovNetZero @TheBotanics
Awesome surprise @UHI_Inverness staff conference, local community champion and three times (current) World's Strongest Man Tom Spicy Stoltman! Apparently lives across the Firth from me. Very #Inspiring and #motivating! #CommunityImpact #mindset

A great time at #treescapes24, fantastic work being done by teams across the UK and beyond. Proud of the STAND team's work on reconciling national #tree expansion targets with local realities with an interdisciplinary approach #forests #nature #landscape #skills #research
Here in Glasgow #treescapes24 with fascinating updates on research and programmes - struck by the inverse 42 and 24 are treescapes the meaning to 'life, the universe and everything'? #trees #forests #woodland #nature

Awesome to see the progeny of the Beauly Priory 800 year old wych elm and the seedling pollinated from two resilient wych elms in the Borders planted - great work from the Scottish Rare Plants team #trees #nature #restoration
Visited a 1.5 hectare site by Loch Rannoch where a new #foodforest is being created with Earthself, local estate, community and @UHI_Inverness. Great project looking forward to the new challenge!

My collaboration with daughter for #WorldBookDay, we had to draw #superheroes, she has a bit of a fear of flies, so we made Super Venus Flytrap Girl...she does like Spiders because they eat flies.

Fascinating day out at Assynt earlier this week speaking about elm, Dutch elm disease and the west of #Scotland as a currently disease free area @scotforestry. However the disease is on the doorstep. How to we protect , mitigate and conserve - great discussion #nature #trees
Stunning @TheBotanics in Edinburgh there light show and installations are sumptuous especially on a frosty evening accompanied by bratwurst and something mulled #trees #nature #art
