We are pleased to announce that we have now planted <a href=\"https:\/\/treesforlife.org.uk\/plant-trees\/grove\/6391\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">more than 2000 native trees<\/a> in the Scottish Highlands.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Why Trees for Life?<\/h2>\n<p>The idea of giving to Trees for Life first came about from a desire to offset the environmental cost of producing our catalogues. We have distributed thousands of catalogues over the years; as well as ensuring these catalogues and guides are printed on FSC-certified paper, we decided to give back to the environment and offset some of our carbon footprint by planting trees.<\/p>\n<p>We have kept to our pledge and have now reached an impressive milestone &#8211; 1005 at the time of writing. Meanwhile, Trees for Life has reached one of its own staggering milestones. Volunteers for Trees for Life have planted over a million trees and are now on their way to planting a million more, helping to re-establish the Caledonian Forest for future generations. We are continuously inspired by this organisation and hope that our readers and customers will join us in supporting them for years to come.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1394193\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1394193\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-Pines-at-Glen-Affric-Grant-Willoughby-e1552565113932.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1394193 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-Pines-at-Glen-Affric-Grant-Willoughby-e1552565113932.jpg\" alt=\"Trees for Life Scots Pines at Glen Affric - Photographer: Grant Willoughby\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1394193\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scots Pines at Glen Affric &#8211; Photographer: Grant Willoughby<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>What Do Trees for Life Do?<\/h2>\n<p>The Caledonian Forest is one of the most important forest ecosystems in the UK and has provided a home for spectacular wildlife for centuries. It is now severely fragmented and in many places consists entirely of old trees. This is largely due to the fact that for many years landowners encouraged the clearance of native mixed woodland in favour of heather moorland or Forestry Commission monoculture forest. This has lead to a decline in native species such as Scots pine, Birch, Willow, Aspen, Rowan, Juniper and Oak, as well as the fauna which depend on them.<\/p>\n<p>Trees for Life is working to expand and link these ancient pinewoods by using three strategies. The first part is facilitating the natural regeneration of native trees by fencing deer out of specific areas of forest. This allows seedlings to grow naturally to maturity again, without being over-grazed.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1394212\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1394212\" style=\"width: 1732px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1394212\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life.jpg\" alt=\"Scots Pines - Photo: Trees for Life\" width=\"1732\" height=\"1154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life.jpg 1732w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-620x413.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-192x128.jpg 192w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Scots-pines-Trees-for-Life-940x626.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1732px) 100vw, 1732px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1394212\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Scots Pines &#8211; Photo: Trees for Life<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The second strategy is planting native trees in areas where the forest has disappeared. This is achieved by collecting seeds from the nearest surviving trees, which maintains the local genetic variation in the forest. The seedlings are grown at the Trees for Life nursery at Dundreggan, near Loch Ness, before they are transported to be planted. The seedlings are planted in a random pattern inside fenced exclosures, replicating the natural distribution of the trees.<\/p>\n<p>The third part of their Action Plan involves the removal of non-native trees. In some areas commercial crop has been planted amongst the old trees of the Caledonian Forest, preventing their regeneration.<\/p>\n<p>Trees for Life&#8217;s aim is that in time these trees will connect the surviving fragments of Glen Affric\u2019s ancient forest and establish a large habitat area for species such as Red Deer, Capercaillie, Black Grouse and Red Squirrel. Their aim is to spread this forested area towards the west coast.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1394195\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1394195\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Glen-Affric-Colin-Leslie-e1552565735333.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1394195 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Glen-Affric-Colin-Leslie-e1552565735333.jpg\" alt=\"Trees for Life Glen Affric - Colin Leslie\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1394195\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Glen Affric &#8211; Photographer: Colin Leslie<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Other Environmental Commitments<\/h2>\n<p>Our efforts to reduce our carbon footprint don&#8217;t stop there.

Covering 3154 square feet, this system will generate 42 500 kWh of electricity per year.
