onboard:earth at Hawkshaw

Hawkshaw is a new native broadleaf woodland in the Scottish Borders. This woodland will be managed on a non-intervention basis and provide a range of benefits including rain water interception, biodiversity, air quality, habitat, and amenity. It located adjacent to the River Tweed (SSSI, SAC) and near Biggar. 

It will provide benefits for water quality, bank stability, temperature, and provide a food source. Hawkshaw also ads diversity to a landscape otherwise dominated by open grazing and commercial conifer forestry.
