Children have visited the farm to learn about Christmas trees.
This includes how trees are planted, maintained and harvested plus their impact on the environment.
At the end of the visit Children are given their own small Christmas Tree to take away to look after and a big tree for their school.
For fun they are also given the chance to enter our Christmas competition.
Our winners this year were Isobel from Strathblane Primary and Reece from Auchinairn Primary.
Well done to Isobel and Reece.
In November and December 2008 we had visits from the following primary schools.
- Strathblane
- Carleith
- St Andrews
- Milngavie
- Buchlyvie
- Balfron
- Fintry
- Craigdhu
- Craighead
- Auchinairn
Some of the comments we had from Children were -
'It was really, really good fun at your Christmas tree place'
'The talk you gave us was very interesting'
'We learned lots of things'
We plan to run School visits again in 2009 so if you would like more details teachers should contact us.
