Scotland’s Secret Seed Army | Glasgow News
Description
Scotland’s forest revival just got a massive boost as Trees for Life and Woodland Trust Scotland smashed their seed goal—collecting over 11 million genetically rare native tree seeds in just three years, enough to grow 7.8 million resilient trees. Volunteers trek remote rainforests and west coast cliffs to gather seeds with ancient DNA that help trees survive climate change and disease. Now extended for another year, these seeds fuel 20 nurseries across the country, restoring vital woodlands like the Caledonian forest and protecting rare temperate rainforests—turning a bold vision into real, rooted progress.
