Sandcastles, pond dipping and hare superstitions with Mark Stephen and Euan McIlwraith.

Join Mark Stephen and Euan McIlwraith for the latest outdoor activities, including tips for the perfect sandcastle, pond dipping in Lochwinnoch and the mysteries of the hare.

For the first time, festival-goers at T in the Park will be able to buy food from a marquee selling local produce. We look at the difficulties small rural firms face when trying to take advantage of big events.

Continuing our look at the jobs available in Scotland's food and drink sector, we speak to an apprentice at a bakery.

As the school holidays arrive, we get tips on making the perfect sandcastle from a sand sculptor.

Another activity for the kids this summer - we go pond dipping in Lochwinnoch.

Plus Mark Stephen takes a ride down the new Culross to Kincardine cycle path and Helen Needham explores the mystic qualities of hare with artist Mel Shand.
