THE SEER CENTRE, Enochdhu, by Blairgowrie
The Sustainable Ecological Earth Regeneration Centre garden project lies on an infertile upland site in Strathardle, subject to cold winds and severe winters. It is a charitable organisation committed to regeneration of soils with Rockdust to remineralise the soil and benefit the grower and the environment. The owners have designed and created a spectacular 4 acre demonstration garden of deep remineralised terraces, producing heavy crops of tasty fruit and vegetables and bright flowers.
