Research farm opens its gates for Climate Week
Visitors to the Initiative, at the Hutton’s Glensaugh research farm, will be taken on a free, 90-minute, 3 km-long guided walk around the farm to learn about some of the Hutton’s climate-positive research, including peatland restoration, increasing the diversity of grasslands, integrating trees on the farm, natural flood management and much more.
Following the walk at the farm, just southeast of Cairn o’ Mount, information will also be provided about the institute’s other activities, including its £6 million HydroGlen green hydrogen project at Glensaugh, through indoor displays over coffee and tea.
