Great to meet the team at Alba Trees. Now, even after the good polls at the weekend, as ⁦@ScottishLabour⁩ we’re warriors against complacency…but it *might* be that this successful East Lothian business told me the Douglas fir (see below) is “proving very popular”! 😂😂😂

Trees are often seen as a symbol of life and growth. A single mature tree can absorb up to 48 pounds of carbon dioxide per year. By gifting a tree, we are essentially gifting cleaner air for future generations🎁 >>  albatrees.co.uk/browse/c-Gifts…
