This grant went towards phase 2 of SCOTLAND: The Big Picture‘s Painting Scotland Yellow project.

During Phase 2, SBP shared their creative work across a wide mix of platforms – their updated website, social channels, newsletter, events and a range of external media. They also offered learning opportunities through a dedicated webinar, an aspen propagation training day and a session for land managers at their Northwoods Partner Gathering.

Their end of grant report expands on the impacts of their work and provides links to information and media about aspen’s role in the ecology of different habitats that can be used to promote a strong future for aspen in our landscape.
