Grounded in Garnock - Unearthing Networks in Nature

Sometimes we don’t know what is happening when it is right in front of us! Whether it is on land, sea, sky, above the soil, beneath the soil and within communities around us. The Grounded in Garnock - Unearthing Networks in Nature project aims to showcase, shine a light on and further develop some of the amazing networks and nature within our area!

Grounded in Garnock is funded by the Scottish Government Place Based Investment Programme and it has been co-created by The Beith Community Trust and local Social Entrepreneur, Michelle Sutherland. It is a 6 week series of seminars and hands-on workshops which take a different topic each week focusing on exploring and nurturing the living systems we live in. We are looking to maximise the natural resource, grassroot activities and infrastructure of the Garnock Valley for educational activity.

Week 5 Practical Workshop will be: Grounded in Garnock - Stories of Restoration

Join us for a practical session working with Peter Livingstone. Through the use of a site

visit we will observe and interact with restoration work that is already taking shape in the

Garnock Valley and how you can play a vital part in its future!

In this workshop you will increase your skills and hands-on experience with an

environmental restoration project; learn how to re-vegetate, maintain, monitor and

interact with restored sites and woodlands. We will begin the day by walking the land and then engage directly with the earth

through interactive, and physical activities.

We encourage you to come to both the Seminar AND the Practical Workshop in Week 5 if you are interested in Stories of Restoration.
