Trees for Life – which has been rewilding Dundreggan estate in Glenmoriston since 2008– received more than 1000 expressions of interest to take part in their “Skills for Rewilding” programme, which welcomed five people per year to Dundreggan over the course of the initiative to spend 12 months under the mentorship of Trees for Life experts.
