Join Mark Stephen and Euan McIlwraith for the latest outdoor activities from Shetland to the Borders, plus the key stories for those who live and work in the countryside.
In the first thirty minutes tomorrow we bring you more about the possible shake-up of Forestry Commission Scotland.
Mark is in Perthshire visiting one of Scotland's smallest distilleries at Strathearn, and meeting Scottish Young Distiller of the Year, Zak Shenfield.
Euan attends an event held by SAC Consulting to explain to farmers the need to adapt and embrace technology to aid their business.
Mark meets Maggie Sutherland who runs a business selling organic vegetable boxes.
Fiddler Pete Clark takes Claire on a walk in Dunkeld where they discuss the life of the late, great local fiddler, Niel Gow.
Hogganfield Park might be on the outskirts of Glasgow, but it's a great place for wildlife watching. It's part of The Seven Lochs Wetland Park which is currently being developed and will eventually be Scotland's largest urban nature reserve, as Mark discovers.
The donkey is an animal often associated with this time of year, but Claire takes an alternative Christmas trek around Glenshee with its camelid cousin, the llama.
The Glenmore area in Cairngorms National Park is one of the most popular outdoor destinations in Scotland, but it needs protection. Mark learns that a consultation has been launched by the Cairngorms National Park Association to consider future plans.
Mark will go to any lengths to appreciate the winter night sky! This week, he lies on a nearby country road for a prize naked-eye view of Jupiter and a shooting star.
It's almost Yule, the ancient festive period of northern Norway and Finland that centres round the winter solstice. Euan tells us a yuletide tale that will take you from the wilds of the frozen north in days of yore, to the present day and a gift that will be on most shopping list this Christmas.
