Wildflower Meadow Management Workshop
Meadows host a wide variety of wildflowers which in turn support pollinators and other insects and wildlife.
98% Meadows have been lost from our countryside, but meadows like the ones at Treborth have unparalleled plant diversity, providing the life support for a huge range of wildlife including fungi, bees, flies, beetles, spiders, moths, butterflies, reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, bats and birds.
They are also an intrinsic part of our cultural heritage - rich in landscape character, farming, folklore and history.
In this workshop you will learn about the importance of meadows, some of the wildflower species that meadows host, how meadows are managed in dofferent environments, and how you can create one too.
This is event is free, but please email treborth@bangor.ac.uk to book a place, as places are limited to 12.
This course is delivered as part of the Growing the Future project at Treborth Botanic Garden. This project has received funding through the Welsh Government Rural Communities – Rural Development Programme 2014-2020, which is funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development and the Welsh Government.
