Directions Contact the organisation

Strathmiglo Conservation Community We are a volunteer community group promoting and managing conservation activities in Strathmiglo. We have meetings every second month which are open to all.

We were instrumental in making the village Fife's first Biodiversity Village. We are a volunteer community group set up to promote and manage conservation activities within Strathmiglo. We have a wide variety of aims and ideas to boost and develop the natural environment within Strathmiglo through management of the green spaces and the community woodland for the benefit of residents, visitor and our native flora, fauna and wildlife. Strathmiglo is a haven for many different species of animals and we have regular sightings of herons, red squirrels, deer, hedgehogs and all manner of bird varieties from small garden birds to large birds of prey such as buzzards. We have regular volunteer days (every 2 to 4 weeks) where we meet up to tackle various activities within the village. We have a small committee and a keen team of volunteers although are always in more need of anyone who can help in anyway and to support the work of the committee.

The ledges create dry pathways for wildlife to pass underneath the road without entering the water.

Sorry for the short notice but one last chance to squeeze in a meet up on a weekday evening before the nights draw in.

Monday 28th September - 6PM - Volunteering Meet Up

We will be having a final rake over of the Meadow to remove all the cuttings and then remove some patches of turf to prepare new areas for wildflower planting over the Winter and next Spring. We will also look to do some maintenance on the planters.

So please bring gloves, rakes, spades, trowels or any other suitable tools.

A plan for meet up sessions at the weekends in Autumn/Winter will follow soon.

We've called in help from an expert to get the meadow sycthed today. This is a quieter and more gentle way of managing the area. It doesn't disturb the insects and allows the seeds to stay in place and germinate again.
There were also some lovely plants in the meadow that I can't identify so please say if you know them.

These are shown in the attached pictures and include chilli pepper (nice and colourful), oregano, thyme and purple kale. Please feel free to help yourself to add to your cooking - these are all edible!
