About this event
On farm Andrew and Debbie Duffus will introduce you to their 1540ha tenanted hill farm and will be talking to about their family's new venture into woodland creation. Discussions on the initial thought process, the decision to plant trees, objectives, challenges and benefits to the business e.g. more shelter less feed costs and better productivity. There will also be a speaker from Scottish Forestry there to discuss funding and first steps to woodland creation. As this will be a farmer-led network please come along and bring your questions and ideas to help guide future event topics.
Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided.
Numbers are limited so booking is essential.
