Feeling outdoorsy this weekend? – We’re heading to Roslin Glen

Dearest Dirties,

Welcome to semester two here’s news about our first project and a bothy update.

From the projects 

A very happy new year to you all!

This semester’s series of unrivaled conservation events begins this Sunday, January 18th: We’re going to Roslin Glen where we’ll be doing some path maintenance and clearing near the Gunpowder Mills.

Meet at 10am in the Pleasance Courtyard, equipped with water, waterproofs and appropriate footwear. We’ll provide transport, tools and a tasty vegetarian lunch. If this is your first project, fear not, we’ll keep an eye out for everyone.

Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday!

Your project people,

Emma and John

Currie Wood – 30th November 2014

This was the muddiest project of all time.

here were my lovely new walking boots before

They were so new they had a beautiful glow that could almost fight off anything….but the amount of mud in Currie wood was too much for the magical glow and they were transformed …..
