Kintyre Environmental Group
Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2006 4:18 pmHi All,
This year the Kintyre Environmental Group intends to run a series of public activities and events to inform, raise awareness and scrutinise new developments affecting the local environment also a series of public activities and events to highlight our cultural heritage and how we have lived with our local environment.
In recent years the Kintyre Environmental Group has operated the Kintyre Community Organic Garden with a small number of volunteers. In order to get these new activities and events off the ground we need more interested active volunteers.
There is no plan yet for what the focus of these activities and events will be. This will depend on who comes forward and what their interests are but we would hope to run an event similar to the environmental fair ran by ABREEF last year as well as some workshops and public meetings.
Ideas which might be of interest are marine environment, whales and dolphins, coastline activities, bygone skills, green woodworking, organic growing, how we used to farm, alternative energy, tourism and our environment - the list goes on.
There will be a public meeting for anyone interested in becoming involved, will post details later.
