Bog Warriors: Peatland Restoration Volunteer Day

Get hands on doing practical restoration work on an area of Bog Woodland in Forestry and Land Scotland's Glenmore Forest Park.

Help us to block up old, but still active, ditches on a small area of Bog Woodland in Glenmore Forest, using hand tools and wood. The aim is to hold more water in the peat, slow the loss of water from the site and to benefit the bog vegetation.

Tools and work gloves will be provided, as will instructions so no experience is necessary.

However, please note this is a physically demanding volunteering session, which includes walking roughly 2km to site and moving around on rough and wet ground with drainage ditches.

It is important that all people have equal access to Cairngorms Connect events. We are happy to provide for your requirements, wherever possible eg. BSL interpreters. If you have any accessibility requirements, please get in touch.

 

When: Monday, 10th February, 10 am – 1 pm

Where: Loch Morlich Car Park. What3Words: // speaker.mailings.claims
