Land
We have responsibility for managing over 1300 acres of land in a sustainable way. This includes the felling of mature timber, replanting in a sustainable way and managing land above the current tree line. We are currently developing a long term sustainable vision for the forest and the land.
Employment and Social Enterprises
We currently employ one member of staff and hire a number of seasonal workers. We are building up a database of locally available trades people, that may be able to work on site and support future projects. If you would like more information then get in touch.
We provide affordable workshop space for a local business and plan to provide further opportunities for local businesses. If you have a business idea, or would like to lease a micro unit from us, then please get in touch.
Community Composting
There is a community composting facility on site, funded by Argyle and Bute council. The facilities are open 24 hours, but there are not always staff on site. If you require assistance, or need to bring a large amount of garden waste, please get in touch with us first.
Kyles Allotment Group
We set up a community allotment and polytunnel on the site to provide space for people to grow their own food. KAG is now an independent organisation, with its own board and members, that rents the land from KCFC.
