Fungi growing in Arran’s temperate rainforest
15th October 2026

Supporting Arran Rainforest CIC

Three collaborative art workshops connecting temperate rainforest around Arran and projects to protect it took place this month and we were delighted to support alongside Independent Arts Projects.

Talks, creative sessions outside and exploration of the amazing life forms in our rainforests here on Arran were enjoyed by lots of participants from Arran and beyond. Rainforest fragments near Kilmory, Drumadoon and at Merkland Wood were explored, along with the neolithic human connections to this amazing landscape.

If you are interested in keeping in touch about temperate rainforest conservation on Arran, please email to join the mailing list: arranrainforest@gmail.com
