Where?

Built in the 1840s as a kitchen garden for the local estate, Glenfinart Walled Garden in Ardentinny is now community-led garden and in keeping with its kitchen garden roots. An orchard grows native fruit trees, and there are beds and a polytunnel for growing organic fruit and vegetables. Children can explore the bird hide, bug hide and sensory garden, created in partnership with BBC Beechgrove Garden.  A wildflower area is full of bee-friendly flowers as part of the Friends of the Earth's Bee cause campaign.

Find out where to watch porpoises playing in the water, bees feasting on wildflower nectar, oystercatchers hunting for dinner through this locally created biodiversity map of Dunoon.

This map is a collaboration between Dunoon Community Development Trust and the Shaping Places for Wellbeing Programme. It features community-led growing initiatives in the Dunoon and Hunter's Quay areas that include a focus on food growing.  Some of the projects are well established and others are just getting started or are at the planning stages.
