This is a unique opportunity to get up close with the Nature that surrounds the Findhorn Community. The workshop will be facilitated by Alan Watson Featherstone and Heather Paul. Alan is an Ecologist, Findhorn Hinterland Trustee and founder of the award-winning charity Trees for Life. Heather has been studying and recording lichens since 2007, with a particular interest in the Findhorn area.
 
Drawing on their connection with the land, and their deep knowledge of many of the species that live there, Alan and Heather will introduce you to some of the plants, lichens, insects and other interesting life in this area, and the fascinating ecological relationships that link them together as part of the web of life.

You’ll learn to recognise and identify some of the key species occurring on the Hinterland site, and will gain knowledge and insights about the fundamental relationships that are essential to healthy ecosystems. 

This workshop is taking place outside. Please come in appropriate clothing and footwear as you will be also walking through our beautiful woodland.
