Making trees work on your croft

11/02/2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Wondering what trees could do for your croft? Join Soil Association Scotland for an online discussion with two crofters – new entrant Phil Knott, of Wildlife Croft on Skye, and Mike Hyatt, of Baleveolan Croft, Isle of Lismore – about their experience of crofting with trees. Ask your questions and hear about:

  • Benefits of agroforestry for crofting operations – food production, wood and fuel, shelter for crops and livestock
  • How trees can support biodiversity and improve soil health
  • How to plan, fund, establish and manage trees on your croft
  • Challenges and how to tackle them

Scottish Forestry and Woodland Trust will also be present to answer your funding questions.

Book here.
