Restoring Scotland’s Natural Landscapes

Based in Inverness, ADLnature have been at the forefront of peatland restoration across Scotland since 2017. We’ve successfully restored 8,000+ hectares of peatland across more than 50 projects, all to Peatland ACTION standards. Our team has extensive experience working in sensitive and complex environments, including designated sites, drinking water catchments, and national parks.

We’re proud to have registered one of the first peatland sites under the IUCN Peatland Code, and since then have registered over 1.3 million carbon credits. We’ve also played a key role in pilot feasibility development with Peatland ACTION and continue to deliver both private and publicly funded feasibility studies across Scotland.

Our work extends beyond restoration. Using tools such as modern drone technology, improved wildlife monitoring, land management techniques, and environmental surveying, we’re bringing practical innovation into everyday operations. Data informed approaches help us understand sites more clearly, make better decisions, and continue to set new standards across the sector.

Introducing our ADLnature Peatland Interns - Iona MacMillan and Cara Doig. Iona and Cara have been with us since the summer months and their time with us has seen them expand their knowledge of all things environmental, peatland and innovation 🌱 here’s a little bit more about them:
🦌 Iona joined the team after graduating from the University of the Highlands and Islands with a BSc in Geography. Through her @naturescot Peatland ACTION funded internship, she is developing her skills in environmental monitoring, restoration techniques, fieldwork and data analysis. Outside of work, Iona enjoys spending time outdoors, hill walking and expanding her knowledge in field sports.
🎿 Cara joined the team after moving home to the Highlands and graduating from the University of Aberdeen with a BSc (Hons) in Zoology in the summer of 2026. Her role as an environmental consultant Intern involves supporting peatland restoration work by carrying out feasibility assessments, fieldwork and assisting with project management. Outside of work, Cara is a lover of all things outdoors and animals and will usually be found riding her horse, training for triathlons or skiing in the winter months.
At ADLnature we are proud to support local graduates and kickstart their environmental careers! If a role in peatland restoration sounds like it would be a good fit for you, check out the link in our bio for details of the current Environmental Consultant role being advertised 🥾

The nights may be drawing in but that doesn’t mean we are slowing down!
With sites on the go, CPD training courses attended, major drone surveys carried out and plenty of peat depthing to do, we’re out and about in all weathers at the moment 🌦️🌈🌫️🌅

Join us for our visit to Sgoil Bhàgh a`Chaisteil on Barra as part of @dyw_outer_hebrides Heritage Careers Week with @rhet_highland
The Higher Geography class were able to have a shot at peat depthing while we discussed peatland restoration and biodiversity with the S1 and 2 classes.🔎

A fantastic visit to the Western Isles with @rhet_highland, as part of the @dyw_outer_hebrides
Heritage Careers Week.
Orla and Anna had a busy week island-hoping to visit 5 schools across Lewis, Harris, North Uist, Benbecula and Barra.
Great to have the opportunity to engage with pupils across the schools, sharing our knowledge of peatland restoration, the importance of our peatlands and the range of career opportunities within the sector.
A huge thank you to all the pupils and teachers who welcomed us and to RHET Highland and Peatland ACTION for making it all happen!

What a brilliant weekend at Belladrum! 🎪
A huge thank you to @mywowscotland and @rhet_highland for the opportunity to have a stand in the Highland Futures Zone at our local festival!
The engagement and enthusiasm from both kids and adults over all three days was fantastic. With well over 5,000 visitors, we spoke to so many people, from those who already knew a lot about peatland restoration to those who had no idea it even existed. It was brilliant to share the benefits of our peatlands with so many festival goers and help spread the word about this important work.
Our bog frogs and bog bug temporary tattoos were also a huge hit! 🐸🐛
If you missed us at Belladrum, we will be at Moy Game Fair this Friday the 7th and Saturday the 8th, hope to see you there 🌱
