Events

KFCG puts on workshops, walks and talks and events for children, offering different ways for people to find out about and enjoy the forest. Join our mailing list - we'll let you know about upcoming events.

From March to August 2025, we're offering a range of events through our Kilsture 1000 citizen science project. Head to our dedicated page to find out more.

We also run weekly volunteer sessions on Mondays 10-1pm, meeting here in the carpark on Garlieston Road. For past events in our Citizen Science Programme please check here.
