An enjoyable papermaking class was held in the Tree House on 16th January 2013, this has been funded by High life highland, as part of the Woodland groups spring training programme. It was tutored by Vicky Stonebridge. It was very popular with people having to be put on a waiting list for next time. The Tree house was ideal for a hands on activity like this, the stove keeping it nice and warm despite the threat of snow outside. The other training events will be posted on this web site, on our facebook group and on twitter @kirktonwoodland .
