Strong Heart, Healthy Community

Culbokie Green

Culbokie Green is a car-free haven in the heart of the village providing a community gathering space, a local destination for informal recreation or just an off-road walking route through part of the village. The Green has been designed to be attractive to all sections of the community with the following features:

  • Meadows which will be cut once or twice per year to promote flowering and encourage butterflies and bees

  • Mown areas suitable for playing and to keep the Green looking tidy

  • Native trees to provide some shelter, amenity and wildlife interest

  • A community orchard including apples, pears, cherries and plums as a focus for community involvement and to promote engagement with local food

 

  • A timber shelter with a natural roof which is a focal point for community events and learning

  • Family games including outdoor table tennis

  • A natural play area for younger children including log and boulder features, willow dens and tunnels.Example of willow play area
  • Safe active travel connectivity to the rest of the village

 

Volunteering is being promoted to help with the development and management of the Green through the Green Team. This is providing a positive opportunity to bring the community together, develop and share skills and build local capacity.
