Seeds of Change: BioBlitz at Stretford Meadows

Session 11: BioBlitz and survey – Available to book from December

The Details

Join us for penultimate Green Skills session being held at Stretford Meadows as part of our Seeds of Change programme, where you will learn a range of green skills, from seed, to tree, to woodland. You do not need to have attended the previous session to come along.

We will be carrying out a BioBlitz to learn all about survey methods and recording, to better inform future habitat management plans. All tools and training will be provided.

This session is for young people aged 16-25, looking to learn new skills, gain experience in the environment sector or just to try something new! If you have any questions or would like any more information, contact Nina at nina@cityoftrees.org.uk.
