Ceilidh for Nature 2025

We're back for another wonderful evening at Kinkell Byre where we celebrate nature in Scotland! Hear from our guest speaker and nature stall holders who share a passion for nature, try some delicious local food (included in the ticket price) and continue the night with a lively ceilidh.

Last year's dancing!

Chat with a variety of local nature friendly stall holders who aim to protect and enhance Scotland's environment. Find out what groups and projects are operating near you - you might even be inspired to join one! We have already confirmed the following organisations with more coming soon...

Pasture as a miracle crop and how it can be good for your health, wealth & wildlife.

We welcome our guest speaker - Johnnie Bafour from Balbirnie Home Farms, Fife. Johnnie is a regenerative agricultural farmer who is passionate about nature and climate friendly farming. He will share with us his insights into managing pasture as a miracle crop and how this can benefit Scotland.

The evening will continue with a ceilidh - hooch! With music provided by the Haggis Chasers. Not to worry if you like a boogie but can't quite remember your Gay Gordons from your Dashing White Sergeant, demonstrations will be provided.

Food for the evening will be supplied by Screaming Peacock, serving up venison burgers and fries. Vegan lentil and chickpea burgers and gluten free options will be available. Please fill out the dietary requirement form when booking.

Our bar will be open throughout the evening operating taking card and cash payments.

We want our Ceilidh for Nature to be as fun and inclusive as possible so please dress comfortably (kilts are always welcome!) Most of all, we hope for an evening filled with exciting conversations, delicious food and lively music. This event grows in popularity each year so booking tickets early is strongly advised. We can't wait to see you there!

Parking is limited at the venue so please car share where possible.

Please get in touch with us soon if you are coming from afar and would like to book one of the onsite . Bookings will be taken on a first-come-first-serve basis!

**Please provide the names and email addresses of all of your guests when buying tickets to help us with organisation and managing dietary requirements**
