Restoring habitats and species,
connecting people with wildlife and wild places
The next event at Bwlch Corog is storyteller Milly Jackdaw’s tales of the trees and flowers of early spring!
Coetir Anian / Cambrian Wildwood is a Welsh charity with the aims of restoring habitats and species, and connecting people with wildlife and wild places. We are the custodians of 150 hectare site called Bwlch Corog, set in the uplands of Mid Wales near the River Dyfi and the sea, and this is where our work is focussed.
Degraded peatland is being restored to blanket bog and upland heath. Tree cover is increasing to re-create a large expanse of native forest and wood pasture. Wild animals such as pine martens and water voles are returning and there may be opportunities to introduce other native species in the future.
The project works with primary schools and holds youth camps for vulnerable and disadvantaged teenagers. Alongside our well established volunteer days, programmes for adults and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds began during the summer of 2021. As a community resource, the site is free to access for quiet enjoyment such as walking and camping, adhering to the principle of leave no trace.
