Tree Planning & Planting Events

Sìdh Chailleann Art has committed to planting trees at Dunnet Forest with community volunteers in a series of creative planning & tree-planting events to collaborate on the future of Caithness’s reforestation endeavors.

We are in the planning stages of this collaborative project.
A great volunteering opportunity for families and organisations;
The planting itself would consist of:
– In person meeting in September to visit Dunnet Forest (3 hours)
– In person meeting in October to discuss the tree-planting (3 hours)
– Attending 5 days’ worth of tree planting at Dunnet Forest (whichever times and dates suit)
