Climate Challenge Fund project update

Muirhouse Millennium Centre’s CCF project has been busy over the winter months . As we move into Spring, here’s an update courtesy of JIM McGINTY:

 

The group worked with pine cones collected from the grounds of the Blair Atholl estate. They upcycled these to make Chrsitmas decorations: and very nice they were too!

Blair Castle is at the hub of a breathtaking historic landscape most of which was laid out in the 18th century and features a magnificent walled garden, a peaceful wooded grove, a ruined kirk, a red deer park and a whimsical gothic folly. Colourful peacocks roam the grounds, Highland cattle graze in fields nearby and the native red squirrel can often be spotted amongst the branches. Children  also enjoyed the castle’s woodland adventure playground.
