How it works

From land fund to living forest.

The Oldwood is designed around a clear supporter journey: secure land, plan with experts, restore native woodland, and report what changes over time.

Early support funds land search, project setup, legal due diligence, ecological assessment, and acquisition preparation.

Potential sites are reviewed for ecological potential, long-term protection, practical access, and transparent reporting value.

Scottish reforestation, ecological, land-management, and impact partners help assess risks and restoration opportunity.

Planting zones, species mix, protection needs, monitoring cadence, and reporting methodology are defined before planting.

Supporters are assigned to shared trees, planting cells, groves, habitat programmes, or restoration zones once plans are confirmed.

Native woodland is planted and protected for long-term establishment, with maintenance and replacement work reported openly.

Survival checks, photos, field notes, wildlife records, and maintenance activity become part of the public record.

Supporters follow the landscape connected to their contribution through the living map and impact dashboard.
