With eleven 2kmx2km "tetrads" to cover within our area, we are extremely grateful for the support of members who have volunteered to undertake the survey in one or more tetrads. The survey began on 1st March and will run until 31st May, but we will be reporting on progress so far at the AGM.


Michelle Stamp departs for pastures new

One of our trustees and long-term supporter, Michelle Stamp has moved to the Isle Of Lewis to continue her work with Nature Scot and to support crofters on the island. She will continue to be a trustee and will support the group whenever she can. The committee and wider membership would like to wish Michelle much success in her new role with Nature Scot and we'll miss her enthusiasm, expertise and wit.

BBC's Beechgrove Garden meets Hazel

Those of you who made it to the Potato Day in Kelso this year will have spotted a crew from BBC's Beechgrove Garden doing some filming for an up-coming episode.

Hazel, never backward at coming forward, grabbed a quick selfie with Calum Clunie.
