An allotment society hopes to secure funding to help it buy a toilet.
Nairn Allotment Society, which launched a Facebook campaign to back its request for cash, has been short-listed for a grant from an RBS community fund.
The compost toilet, which would have provision for disable gardeners, is for the organisation's newest site in Nairn's Mill Road.
The society said the loo would be screened by climbing plants on trellises.
