Smallholding Scotland
Established by smallholders, Smallholding Scotland is a unique, member-led organisation dedicated to representing, promoting and supporting smallholding across Scotland.
Our purpose is to promote and support the sustainable stewardship and the purposeful use of smallholdings.
We organise the annual Scottish Smallholder Festival, usually held at Forfar Mart in Angus.
We are a membership organisation, please consider joining, and supporting our work in promoting the productive use of small-scale land holdings.
