Hosted by the Carse of Stirling Partnership

📍 West Moss-side Organic Farm, Thornhill (FK8 3QJ)

📅 Friday 6 February 2026

🕛 12:00–2:00pm (followed by optional farm walk)

Calling all farmers, land managers, estates, and smallholders in the Upper Forth catchment area and the Carse of Stirling.

You are invited to join us for an informal lunch to share your thoughts about managing land on the Carse of Stirling and Upper Forth. Discuss what’s working, what’s challenging, what matters most to you and ideas for the future. Topics could include policy, changing weather and flooding and drought, along with nature restoration and peatland work, or the long-term resilience of your land.

There will be an optional short farm walk afterwards where you can see an award-winning organic beef farm and landscape restoration in action.

Whether you farm a few acres or you manage land at a larger scale, your views and experience are valued. This is the start of a collaborative farmer and land manager led conversation, and we’d be delighted for you to join us to be part of it.

Places at this event are limited so please register your attendance as soon as possible. If you are unable to attend but would like to be informed of future events, please email Farm Walk facilitator jenny@propagate.org.uk.

Attendees will have the option to join the Upper Forth Farmer and Land Manager Network, an opportunity to share knowledge, identify skill needs and coordinate actions that support resilient landscapes – register here https://upperforthnetwork.org/sign-up/

This event is supported by the Carse of Stirling Partnership, Forth Rivers Trust, Propagate Scotland, the Scottish Government Knowledge and Transfer Innovation project, Glasgow Caledonian University and FEL Scotland.
