🍎 Our Branching Out group got to grips with the apple press on another bracing day at Silverburn Park. There has been a focus of late for the programme to deliver seasonal sessions where appropriate.
With the popular making of wild garlic pesto in the spring, this autumn it was time to make apple juice.
Apples harvested from around Fife - including some brought in by one of the group from their back garden - were manually pulped and put through the press.
Teamwork was key here with everyone having a shot at preparing, crushing and pressing the fruit before the much-anticipated tasting session around the fire.
This is the first time this has featured as a Branching Out session, and it`s safe to say it will return on future programmes!
Branching Out is our 12-week outdoor activity programme for people who are negatively affected by sustained periods of low mood and poor mental health. It’s also suitable for people with diagnosed mental health issues.

🍂 As we come to the end of Green Libraries Week, we are celebrating the Letter to the Tree project, led by Fife Climate Forest and artist Lera Grant. People across Fife wrote their letter to a tree, sometimes even typed on leaves! And all of these works have culminated in a beautiful, deeply human and heart-warming book. Each library has a copy of `Letter to the Tree` which can be reserved. Why not turn over a few leaves of this beautiful book?

🌱 It`s Seed Gathering Season! These young oaks were grown by one of our Fife Tree Wardens from acorns collected at Lochore Meadows. Proof that a walk in the woods can grow the next generation of trees.
Fancy having a go yourself? A few simple rules:
- Always ask the landowner`s permission before collecting
- Only take seed from healthy-looking trees
- Note where and when collected (species & location matter)
- Leave plenty for the birds and squirrels - they need it more!
We`re especially keen for: oak, hazel, rowan, hawthorn, Scots pine and alder for community planting. Community tree tables are popping up across Fife, giving anyone the chance to grow trees from seed, meaning no garden required.
Growing space is currently available at:
- Pitcairn Centre, Glenrothes with Fife Coast & Countryside Trust
- EATS Rosyth
- CLEAR Buckhaven and Methil
Not sure how to turn a berry or acorn into a growing seed? The Tree Council`s Tree Growers Guide covers everything from de-fleshing berries to stratifying seed for germination.
