NFU Scotland is embarking on research to explore how a wider cross-section of people from across Scotland can get involved with the union and it’s work.

With one third of UK woodlands on farms, it is more important than ever that foresters have a better understanding of farmers and farming and the huge opportunities that agroforestry brings. These online sessions will enable members to understand how best to integrate and better manage trees in the farmed landscape from a position of understanding farm systems and enterprises.

In partnership with Comrie Croft, Tomnah’a Market Garden, and CoDeL this unique, hands-on event will explore how young people are finding a way back to the land and farming, re-introducing traditional skills, applying new agroecological knowledge and practices, and inspiring and encouraging more young people to do the same.

Join a workshop led by Community Energy Scotland (CES). This workshop is aimed at community groups and organisations based or operating in Glasgow.
