The historic conservation village of Colmonell has become a Biosphere Community, the seventh to be designated within Galloway and Southern Ayrshire UNESCO Biosphere and the second in South Ayrshire. You can read the full Biosphere Colmonell press release here.
The Biosphere website now has a featured section on Colmonell.
As the relationship between village and Biosphere continues to grow, residents of Colmonell will be able to call on ‘Team GSAB’ to help develop community initiatives and promote special events. Jenna Cains, Community & Education Lead Officer, said, “Colmonell truly is the ‘wee village with a big heart’, and sits in a landscape that represents the very essence of our world class UNESCO designation.”
