Let’s Talk Better Forestry is a podcast for anyone who cares about how we do forestry – and how we might do it better. Hosted by Morag Paterson from the Forest Policy Group, this series takes a slower, more reflective look at the people, practices, and policies shaping Scotland’s woodlands today.

Through honest, thoughtful, and sometimes messy conversations, we go beyond the headlines to hear from the foresters, land managers, and thinkers working on the ground. Each episode is a chance to explore real experiences, big ideas, and the tensions that sit between them, with space for questions, disagreement, and a bit of laughter too.

Whether you're deep in the world of forestry or just forest-curious, we hope you'll find something here to spark your interest or maybe even shift your perspective.
