FAITH, HOPE & CHARITY

Friends of Golf & Thistle recently sent us three young hickory trees in the hope that they might survive the Scottish weather and one day grow to their North American height of 80'. Our picture shows Peter and Chick from the National Trust, with over 40 years experience between them managing the gardens at Hill of Tarvit, doing everything possible to give our very special new arrivals a chance to live and prosper between the 1st and 9th fairways.
Meantime, Michelle stands by wondering how long it will take before she can cut them down and use the wood for repairing any broken golf clubs!
