Last year we celebrated 25 years of Thistle Camps. These residential working holidays are organised by the Trust to help with the conservation and management of the countryside and garden properties in its care.

Thistle Camps offering garden-related activities are held at various properties, such as Pitmedden Garden in Aberdeenshire and Brodick Estate on Arran.

The work may include such activities as :

  • rhodedendron Control
  • footpath Maintenance
  • and general garden maintenance
