Friday 25 April, 10am-12pm. Litter pick at Boars Well nature reserve (BD3 0FA). This was rescheduled as the foliage at this time of year (spring) should now allow us to collect the litter effectively.
CHECK BACK HERE FOR DETAILS OF MORE DATES FOR Lister Park Tree Identification Walks:
A walk around Lister Park with Veronica Youngson to see the trees through the seasons. This is the perfect identification event as you regularly see the trees as they change through all stages, from budding, leafing, flowering, fruiting, and shedding. Meet at the Norman Arch (the north-east entrance), plenty of parking along Emm Lane, BD9 4JR. What three words: visual.zeal.eagle
