Forres Friends of Woods and Fields

About

Forres Friends of Woods and Fields (FFWF) aims to cultivate an understanding and appreciation of nature, with community wellbeing at its core. It does this through local food growing and stewardship of 26 acres of land on the edge of the town of Forres, Moray, Scotland. The charity looks after the Kennel Wood and adjacent Field on the ridge to the south of Sanquhar Pond, and the Chapelton Fields up towards the old farmhouse, including parts of the Mosset Burn. Our land borders that of other well-established environmental organisations in Forres, namely the Sanquhar Pond Group, which cares for the council-owned woodlands and trails around Sanquhar Pond, and the Forres Community Woodland Trust, which manages the bulk of Sanquhar Woods. These areas together form a vital and intriguing wildlife and recreational asset for the town.
