Tree and woodland identification talk and walk



This is a free opportunity to discover more about our local woodland trees. The walk aims to give participants the knowledge and techniques required to identify and record a wide variety of tree species in a given location.

Complete beginners are welcome - several of us know very little, some of us know quite a bit and we're all keen to learn.

If you have any books or guides that might help give us a key to tree identification, please bring what you can easily carry.

Photographers are welcome - we are always looking to add to our list of identified trees and hope you'll contribute a few of the pictures you take if you wish.

The Tree Walk is intended to last around  3 hours (this is flexible). If it rains too much we will head for the Discovery Centre and use leaves and small branches (and what we can see out of the window) to focus on what is around us.
