Resourcing Scotland’s Heritage visit Starbank Park
Louise Dunne from Resourcing Scotland’s Heritage came to the park on Tuesday morning to make a short video as part of a series of videos on crowdfunding campaigns. Despite the weather, Louise interviewed three of us and we had a successful and pleasant morning. Louise describes her visit in http://www.resourcingscotlandsheritage.org/blog/2016/02/what-a-star/.

Saturday Gardening: 6 February, 10-11.30
There’s a gardening session on Saturday. Lots to do, including the nature trail, and a fair weather forecast. Please come along if you can.
Busy Morning in the Sunshine
We had a good turnout on a glorious winter’s morning. There were lots of bits of branches to clear after Gertrude and Henry had done their worst, we have put the potted irises into the sunshine and got on with the nature trail. And, because the weather is so good, the bergenias are flowering!
Nature Trail Blazing Ahead
We’re making good progress with our nature trail. Most of the stepping stones have been laid and we’ll soon be preparing the ground for our first area of themed planting. Bird boxes are being assembled and insect hotels readied. There’s plenty of time for you to help, either volunteering on a Wednesday or a Saturday, or by donating through the MyParkScotland website at http://www.mypark.scot/projects/childrens-nature-trail/.

January daffodil in Starbank Park
