Enabling natural meadow regeneration through adaptions to grazing management.
The project, which is supported by the Cairngorms Green Recovery Fund 2021, brought participants together at Croft of Clachaig near Nethy Bridge for botanical training with botanist Ben Averis as well as grazing discussion with NFFN Scotland Steering Group member Nikki Yoxall and PFLA Scotland Regional Facilitator Clem Sandison. The project is a collaboration between the Cairngorms National Park Authority, Plantlife Scotland, the Nature Friendly Farming Network and the PFLA.
The next stage of the project will be a series of workshops, mentoring and facilitated support for the participating farmers to plan for mob grazing on their farms in the future.
