About this Event
Tha mu dhà mhillean heactair de thalamh-mòintich ann an Alba. Nuair a tha a’ mhòinteach ann an deagh chor, tha i na cuideachadh mòr dhuinn nar beathannan. Tha i a’ lùghdachadh buaidh atharrachadh na gnàth-shìde le bhith a’ tasgadh carbon, a’ toirt uisge glan dhuinn agus ag ìsleachadh cunnart thuiltean. Tha a’ mhòinteach cuideachd na teàrmann sònraichte dha fiadh-bheatha, agus tha i cudromach dha tuathanasachd, croitearachd, cur-seachadan ’s turasachd.
Tha beartas cànain ’s dualchais dlùth-cheangailte ris na h-àiteachan prìseil seo. Thigibh an cuideachd Ross Christie a rùrachd ainmean ’s briathrachas dha feartan-tìre, lusan ’s beathaichean a’ mhòintich, agus sùil a thoirt air a dìleab chultarach.
Tha an tachartas seo saor an-asgaidh agus chan fheum sibh tiocaid a ghlèidheadh. Tha e seo na chom-pàirteachas eadar Peatland ACTION, NàdarAlba agus Ionad Gàidhlig Dhùn Èideann. Tuilleadh fios: [email protected]

Scotland has around two million hectares of peatlands. When they are in good condition, peatlands support many aspects of our lives. They reduce the effects of climate change by storing carbon, support clean drinking water and reduce flood risks. Peatlands also offer a unique home for wildlife, and they are vital to farming, crofting, recreation and tourism.
There is a wealth of Gaelic language and heritage intertwined with these special places. Join Ross Christie to explore Gaelic names and vocabulary for landscape features, plants and animals, along with a look at our peatland’s cultural prominence.
This event is free of charge and you do not need to book in advance. It is a partnership between Peatland ACTION, NatureScot and Ionad Gàidhlig Dhùn Èideann. For more info: [email protected]
