The community council has received this invitation to the community about a tree planting volunteer day:
Monday 7 April 2025, 10am-1pm
Join the Drumbrae Woodland Community Ranger to plant trees near the path towards Cocksburn Reservoir, at Drumbrae. They will be planting crab apple trees as part of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh’s Scottish Plant Recovery project.
You will help prepare the ground for planting, plant trees and make sure all trees are recorded so they can monitor them over the years.
You don’t need any specific skills or previous experience and they will provide the tools and equipment. To volunteer you must be 16 years old or over to volunteer. Those under 16 years old, must be accompanied and supervised by a responsible adult. This activity is recommended for age 8 and above. Places are limited and spaces must be booked in advance. If the event is over-subscribed they will operate a wait list.
