Month: March 2016

One of the aims of our group is to encourage young people to become actively involved in the projects we are running and so develop an interest in nature and the local environment. One  current project is the development of a new wild flower border on the entrance to the Glen from Station Road. The new border has been prepared and the sowing of the wild flower seeds took place in May 2016 with help from the pupils of Queensferry Primary School. The pupils will continue to help manage the border until the wild flowers become established as they will face stiff competition from indigenous weeds. The pupils will also learn the benefits a wild flower border habitat offers to insects, and other forms of wildlife
