Skolie burn Meadows SCIO

Skolie burn Meadows SCIO Skolie burn meadows is a large area of land between Addiewell and Loganlea.

Our hope is to rejuvenate this area and make it into the wildlife haven it once was whilst making it accessible to all.

Just a heads up cattle will be in from Monday the 13th September.

The cattle will be in mainly mornings and during the week and the gates will be locked. We will be grazing compartment at a time so an alternative route will be available.

The trustees recently planted 100 trees. We are sad to say that 6 of them were vandalised yesterday & a plum tree which was planted 4 years ago was snapped in two & ripped out of the ground.

The trustees are volunteers & do not get paid for their time. We are trying to improve the environment & make the village a nicer place for everybody but when stuff like this happens it feels like we are sadly wasting our time and efforts.

Kids have been unfortunately seen doing this. They were also seen starting a fire at the back of houses in burnside terrace two nights ago which the fire brigade attended.

Parents need to ask their kids what they have been up to.

If the situation gets worse then the trustees will call it a day & leave the meadow to grow wild which would be a shame after all the hard work put in.

And just like that we have a dog litter bin down the meadows 🎉🚮Thanks to everyone who donated and made it possible 🥰
