Back in December our North East Advisor submitted a proposal for the creation of 480ha of new native pinewood in the North East (see Blog posted 10/12/10) to the Scottish Rural Development Programme.
The proposal was considered, along with a number of other forestry schemes, by representatives of a number of Government Environmental Agencies last month.
We were notified of the successful outcome of these deliberations recently and our North East manager and the landowner are delighted that the proposals were approved!
The planning work of engaging contractors and ordering plants from tree nurseries is now underway.
Will keep you posted on progress over the coming 12 months.
Juniper is one of the native species included in the pinewood proposals
