Portmoak Festival
Something a bit more relaxing than being bent double hoiking birch out of the Moss. The Portmoak Festival is back in action this year and we're pleased to support it by hosting some events in our Community Orchard.
Sunday 29th May, 3pm-5pm. Tunes in the Trees. Local folk musicians will be performing in the orchard.
Sunday 5th June, 2pm. Marje Smith, a member of our group, will conduct a guided walk starting in the orchard. We’ve been delighted by the success of a booklet for children, called Bogtastic, which introduces them to the Moss by taking them on an adventure with Captain Carbon. Now we’re ready to launch a new, companion booklet, this time for Kilmagad Wood, called Treetastic, which is equally full of puzzles and fun activities.
Sunday 12th June, from 3pm-5pm. Jazz on a Summer Afternoon. Dave Batchelor, trombonist and another member of Portmoak Community Woodland Group, will be there with his band. Dave’s jazz gigs have always been a popular part of the festival, with a great atmosphere and lots of toe-tapping music.

For the music events, why not bring a picnic (and something to sit on)? All events will be free but if you want to you'll be able to make a donation. If the weather's bad we'll relocate the music to the village hall.
