COIF Events
The COIF Team is stepping up by co-creating events to share our experiences and knowledge, and where participants can step into their own inner historian / archivist / librarian / journalist and have FUN!
Ecovillage Findhorn UK ~ Challenges
Friends in NextGEN, the youth branch of the ecovillage network said to me that they don't want to see another shiny ecovillage video, presenting everything as being all right, but rather they would like to see the challenges of the community.
Archivist’s 2nd Blog: From Discovery to Consolidation
We are moving out of the ‘delightful yet overwhelming’ initial phase of poking around cupboards and diving straight into the physical, tangible work of building a centralised home for our history.
Hope
On the West Coast of Scotland, local residents of Moidart and nonprofit Trees for Hope find ways to regenerate the ancient Atlantic Rainforest.
Hike
We follow a hillwalking journey of Hugo leading a small group of people on a mountain near Ullapool. He shares his deep love and connection with the Scottish mountains.
Haven
We follow Kajedo, the land steward of the Findhorn Hinterland Trust, in how he approaches 'deep listening to the land', and leads a small group of volunteers in taking actions to increase biodiversity in a desert ecosystem.
Ecotheatre-Home
During a summer camp five teenagers play, reconnect with nature, and reclaim their identities with nature amidst the teen angst years and planetary crises. Ecotheatre is not just about performing with nature. It is a journey home.
Maypole Raising Ecovillage Findhorn Beltane 2026
Gathering of friends and visitors, garland making, preparing and raising the Maypole and gloriously, creative, chaotic, laughter-filled, dancing. Held by Dræyk with storytelling for children of all ages to finish!
Community Archivist’s Blog: Charting the Journey

Archive Project Proposal (2020)
