๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒณ TREE WORK ALERT - STARTING WEDNESDAY 20TH!! ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ
We love our trees here at Falkland Estate and do our utmost to take good care of them. Some of the lime trees on the avenue - between East Lodge and the House of Falkland driveway - have descending rot and we've been monitoring and maintaining them for some years in an attempt to prolong their life. Unfortunately the rot is extensive and some extreme pruning work is now required - both for the safety of the public and to retain these trees for a while longer.
Our plan is to reduce the height of these trees by removing the affected larger upper limbs, leaving the lower branches and foliage. We will then look to plant replacement trees between these, so that when the time comes to fully remove the large trees ๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฒ the younger trees will be established as a replacement.
Work will commence THIS COMING WEDNESDAY, 20th SEPTEMBER and will last a week or two. We'll take every possible precaution to make sure this work is carried out safely ๐Ÿ‘ท๐Ÿชšโ›‘ - there will be signage ๐Ÿšซin place and the area will be cordoned off. We would ask that you please take extra care when visiting the Estate whilst this work is going on.

The next few weeks will be extra-busy for our farm team, with organic oats ๐ŸŒพ beans ๐Ÿซ˜ and barley ๐ŸŒพ to be harvested. Some of these will be kept to feed our sheep ๐Ÿ‘ and cattle ๐Ÿ„ with the surplus being sent off to be made into cereal bars.
Falkland Estate is a working farm so please be aware that heavy farm machinery ๐Ÿšœ will be moving around, keep an eye on children and - as always - keep dogs ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿพ on leads.
