In this episode of Let's Talk Better Forestry, host Morag Paterson sits down with Julia Farrington of the Kilsture Forest Community Group in Dumfries & Galloway.
They talk openly about how the community moved from campaigning to save Kilsture Forest into a partnership with Forestry and Land Scotland, co-managing the woodland with shared vision and practical action.
Julia shares how citizen-science projects, biodiversity mapping, woodland condition assessments and collaborative work with schools, artists and researchers are helping build a resilient, connected forest. Together, they explore the challenges and opportunities of community-led forestry, and how engaged stewardship is creating real change on the ground.
Tune in for a grounded and inspiring conversation about how better forestry happens when people, place and purpose come together.
