Time for Trees

with the Anam Cara Community
23 May – 6 June
(starts Friday evening)

The ‘Time for Trees’ work retreat is proving a popular event. The principle task as in previous years involves the propagation of native tree seedlings which make a small but well tended contribution to the reforesting of Scotland’s native woodland.

June is a particular busy month in the nursery, dominated by the transplanting of birch, hazel and scots pine seedlings.

We are looking for assistance over a two week period to undertake this gentle task and offer full board and accommodation in exchange for labour. The work is light, simple, stress free and good communal fun.

 We will include a daily awareness practice into the activities normally in the form of a silent period of mindfulness. There will be opportunity to participate in a range of informal activities including daily meditation, talks, African drumming, which will add variety to what should be an enjoyable and fruitful experience.

Participants are requested to book a minimum of one week, running from Friday to Friday.
