Tree Planting

Tue, Jun 28th 2022 at 8:30 am - 11:00 am

A Queen's Platinum Jubilee event


A group of five trees, three hawthorn and two rowan, were planted in Slitrig Crescent this morning (Tuesday 28th June 2022) by SBC in conjunction with Hawick Rotary. Rotary's application for £900 from SBC's Queen's Platinum Jubilee Fund was successful and the location and the choice of the flowering and colourful trees was made through discussion with Fiona Cameron and Grant Turnbull of SBC. The tree varieties are

3 x Hawthorn Crataegus media Paul's Scarlet and 2 x Rowan Sheerwater

Photos show Hawick Rotary's George Hogg, Ron Sutherland, Scott Elliot, Linden Warburton and Jim Walker with the first of the trees being planted, and Ron Smith placing the plaque recording the Jubilee event
