Viewing in: English

Fancy a foraging trip in the Atlantic oak woodland of Felenrhyd? Then come along to help collect vital native seeds for future tree planting.

Evidence shows that locally sourced trees are best adapted for native woodland planting in the UK, especially in a changing climate. During this session, we will collect seeds from native trees in our Felenrhyd rainforest, which will then be supplied to local partners for use in conservation projects in Snowdonia National Park.

This is a free event, but booking via Eventbrite is essential.

This event is supported by players of the People’s Postcode Lottery.
