Junior Rangers have taken part in a major drive to plant native trees in the Cairngorms National Park. On Saturday (30 April 2011) under the supervision of Glen Tanar Charitable Trust Rangers and with the help of John Muir Trust volunteers, they planted lots of new trees on Glen Tanar Estate.
The oak and hazel trees were planted along a section of the Dinnet to Glen Tanar Core Path, which was recently constructed by the Cairngorms Outdoor Access Trust, and replaced non-native trees removed during the path construction.
Glen Tanar Ranger, Mike Martin, said: “I was really impressed by how hard the Junior Rangers worked throughout the day to plant these trees. They showed real enthusiasm for what they were doing, knowing they’re making a difference not just to Glen Tanar Estate but the wider Park, people and wildlife.”
