About this event
Join the team behind the Climate-Positive Farming Initiative at Glensaugh, for a farm walk and indoor displays to learn more about our research actions to address the climate and biodiversity crises, with transformative farming and technological innovations.
As you walk with our team up the glen, over the moor and through the fields, you can find out all the muddy details about restoring our peatlands, addressing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, integrating trees and wildlife on the farm, natural flood management, managing farmland for beneficial insects and much more. The guided farm walk is followed by an indoor displays with coffee and tea, during which the Hutton team will discuss specific projects and answer your questions.
Each walk will take about 90 minutes, covering 3k in distance, and there will be some steep inclines on the trail, so be sure to bring your hiking boots. The farm walk is family friendly, however the route is not accessible for wheeled transport users - such as pushchairs, wheelchairs, motorised scooters.
This event will consist of 2 different tours of Glensaugh farm at the available time slots:
Thursday 25th September at 10:00AM
Thursday 25th September at 2:00PM
