Compost and Castings

Lauriston Farm is a 100 acre piece of land in North West Edinburgh, overlooking the Firth Of Forth, and has a long history of food production, however in recent years the land was solely being used for intermittent grazing and silage production.One of the key opportunities in having an urban farm is the chance to connect and work with people; to include the local community in the workings of the farm, to provide education and training opportunities for people and to enhance the experience of being outdoors within nature in the city.We host creative land based events and activities at the farm ranging from flax processing demonstrations to natural pigment workshops, earthen building to pumpkin tasting, creative writing to soil sampling and everything in between!
