The Lake of Menteith is a fishery so water quality is important; it is also surrounded by farms.

• Matt and Niels will discuss how farming with trees could work on Matt’s farm
• Learn how riparian buffer strips improve water quality
• Explore how to plant trees for grazing and shelter sheep and cattle
• Discuss the potential of fruit trees
• Q&A with Matt and Niels.

Free of charge to farmers, land managers and foresters in Scotland.
