## **Dunkeld and Birnam Community Arboretum 2024 Annual Report** **SCIO 049890** ## **A tribute to Mike Silburn - Founder and Chairperson** At the start of 2024, the Chair of our Trustees, sadly passed away. A passionate advocate for the environment, with a relentless focus on the community of Birnam & Dunkeld and the valley and hills that surround us, heartfelt commitment was to create change for the bette was the driving force that led to the foundation of Dunkeld and Birnam Community Arboretum - our charity would not have existed without him. A true visionary was full of creative and exciting ideas on how to make things happen in our precious big tree country. He was determined to try to prevent and help heal scars caused by any future dualling of the A9. He understood the importance of increasing the connection between community and trees, to help everyone learn more about tree species, habitat, and their relation to memory and story. was determined to reduce and remove the barriers that prevent people in our community from engaging with their big trees. It was clear to him that this could be done in interesting, participative, and creative ways. He understood that education and learning do not have to be dull; they can be playful and that very much suited playful personality and sense of humour. Biodiversity is a critical issue for us all in terms of the sustainability of our planet article in the Bridge about Birnam Wood and Birnam Hill is an example of how active he was in addressing this right up until the end of his life. (A copy of his article can be found under New Projects on our website; www.communityarboretum.scot ). became an electric wheelchair user in the last 10 years of his life and through that had direct lived experience of the disabling attitudes, behaviours and infrastructure barriers that many people with health conditions and impairments in our community can experience. His insight and wide-ranging skills as a retired GP and deep knowledge of our community, made him a powerful champion for change. He understood the relationship between the health of our big trees, fragile environment and our community and the opportunities for each to heal the other. Like many others, daily he found novel ways to overcome practical barriers that people with health conditions and impairments like him face in accessing and enjoying the things others take for granted. ## **BIRNAM AND DUNKELD** ## **COMMUNITY ARBORETUM** Our mission is to remove the **barriers** that prevent people in our local community in playing **active roles** in sustaining **Dunkeld and Birnam** as **an area of exceptional trees,woods and biodiversity** We will work with **local organisations, funders and stakeholders** to create **new opportunities** to _connect our diverse community to their arboretum through accessible pathways and inclusive activities have fun increasing biodiversity through exploring, learning, growing and planting heritage trees from local seeds inspire community creativity, support local artisans, traditional crafts and sustainable community enterprises_ **www.communityarboretum.scot SCIO: 049890 www.bigtrees.scot** Our vision is **Birnam and Dunkeld Community Arboretum** will be more **resilient, growing** in **size, status and significance** as **an area of exceptional trees and woods** and biodiversity at the heart of Perth and Kinross: Birnam and Dunkeld Community Arboretum in the heart of “The cradle of Scottish Forestry Renaissance” * benefits everyone in our community and future generations by helping prevent climate change. **Come sit ‘neath the branches** soe ree hee pire Toe a a, eet a a a af wi Ve * “fo ai **of the old oak tree,** ekea eeSe a siES“aoeee bie **What will you find,** Ps Tet ja Rm ges ea = **Who might you see?** We will work in partnership with other organisations in ways which > enhance and improve our natural environment > support and strengthen the local economy >are accessible to local people and visitors alike _*** Perth and Kinross Forest Strategy 2020-24**_ SNE **His beloved tree** ge RAL ia 1 RE EB coSo ea ag ee eg eee ee he u **Proudly Majestic** Mem. ae Ce ee a oe De ne eS Se aes **Many hours he sat beneath** as may Senses Rae eign Saige A Rina), a eae her hie Bes fe **Sentinel of her domain** : SS ee = & a Fe aaa fe 4 Ags \ SY RE hee PS SCs: .

Never has the healing potential of big trees been so important; nor felt precarious in the face of accelerating climate change and growing global conflict. But trees can be our teachers. As the photo on the left shows, even an apparent ‘dead’ tree hosts and enables a wide variety of life. The Rowan opposite the Dunkeld and Birnam Co-working space is a testament to the resilience of our local trees; challenges, roots were significantly disrupted by the SGN gas pipe construction, but so far, it appears to have adapted and once again continues to nurture a wide rage of lichen, mosses and wild birds. Like the Rowan tree, Community Arboretum has had to adapt to new challenges and we have learned a lot over the past 12 months. In 2025, we would like to continue to work hard with those living in the heart of our communities to understand their priorities and concerns when it comes to protecting our big heritage trees and the local environment. ‘A traditional function of an arboretum is to provide opportunities for educators, students, and the general public to identify plants and learn about their natural history.’ – _Indiana University of Pennsylvania_ ## **Stanly Hill Path Construction Design** Consultation ongoing ## **COMMUNITY ARBORETUM TRUSTEES** and her family settled back in Dunkeld in 2011 having lived here as a teen attending Breadalbane Academy. has been involved in local projects as an architect - Birnam Arts and Bruce Gardens - is on the Birnam Arts fabric committee, the A9 Core Group, is a director of the Dunkeld and Birnam Community Coworking space and a friend of the Dunkeld & Birnam Station.

In biblical times, this ‘true cedar’ grew extensively all around the mountains of Lebanon, giving the cedar its name. After centuries of deforestation, there are now just a handful of groves remaining, most notably the Cedars of God, a UNESCO World Heritage site which is now under threat from climate change.’ ©Throrgood Timber Merchants _Use the three underlined words in the Haiku to help you find the tree.
