ACT Treasurer, Dennis Gower said “We look forward to building on the excellent work done by Glyn Toplis which has given us a strong foundation for the future with our sensory garden, orchard and vegetable plots. An important part of the job is the work with volunteers and the training programme which Glyn began.”  Full information on the post is available on request by contacting Lynn on 01369 810275 or lkerr172@btinternet.com

Historic Kilmun and Glenfinart Walled Garden collaborated recently by sharing Dunoon premises over a two-day period.  The Argyll Street shop, which was kindly offered by Tony Stonehouse, provided a venue to promote both projects and attract volunteers. Members of the public enjoyed teas and coffees and many expressed an interest in visiting both attractions.

Over the past few months Ardentinny Community Trust has been working on plans to transform Glenfinart Walled Garden into a venue that can be used by all members of the community as well as attracting tourists to the area thereby enhancing the tourism offer on the Cowal Peninsula.

The appointed independent consultants (the Venturei Network) assigned to assist the Trust in this process have produced a report setting out how the Walled Garden will be developed over the medium to long term.

The Ardentinny Community Trust believes community groups and organisations, in addition to tourist, recreational, hospitality, and educational providers across the Cowal Peninsula, should be involved in the project to ensure the long-term sustainability of both the Garden and the Region. Therefore, the Venturei Network is holding an event which will present the outputs of the report and provide an opportunity for connections to be made between the Trust and these organisations to move the project forward.

This event will take place in:

The Younger Hall, Kilmun on Wednesday 4^th February 2015  between 7pm – 9pm.

All community groups and organisations as well as tourist, recreational, hospitality and educational providers on the Cowal Peninsula are encouraged to attend this event
