Hedge planting at Guidibest – April ’08
The Caithness Countryside Volunteers enjoyed a morning planting a holly, blackthorn and hawthorn hedge on some croft land last weekend, taking a short break to help feed the pet lambs. These species of tree were chosen to provide a biodiversity rich habitat as well as to withstand the Caithness weather. The hedge should also provide shelter for lambs in years to come.
Refreshments and some trees for the hedge were funded by Community Service Volunteer Action Earth Awards.
