Forest Manager
After a few months as our temporary Forest Manager, Neil Valentine has had a chance to stand down. Our new manager is Alasdair Martin who brings a wealth of experience to the job.
Growing up in the rural west coast of Highlands allowed Alasdair to develop a love and appreciation for the outdoors.
After around 5 years working in the forestry industry doing various jobs such as tree planting and felling, he decided to study for a bachelor’s degree in Sustainable Forest Management. Following graduation, he worked in different forest management positions including several years running his own forestry contracting business and working all throughout Scotland. Alasdair is keen to see the difference he can make in shaping the vision of the community forest.
In his spare time, Alasdair enjoys music, mountain biking, and spending time with his daughters.
Alasdair can be contacted by email: forestmanager@aigasforest.org.uk
