We're all familiar with the common bee, right? But there's more than meets the eye to these small insects. Led by beekeeper Ann Pengelly and naturalist Marjorie Waters; come and explore the importance, needs and life cycles of honey bees, bumble bees and solitary bees. Try to identify as many as possible in the orchard, community woodland orchard, and the garden which will be shortly followed by cream tea.
Suggested donation £6 to include tea. Please book by 4 July and meet at grid reference SY 263910. Part of DWT’s Bumblebee Campaign to help the bees keep on buzzing.
The Newtown Community Association cafe on Sunday 12 May will be partnered by the Devon Wildlife Trust.
The event, open from 2pm-4pm, will include DWT Terrestrial Conservation Officer Emily Stallworthy, who will have a stand with information on wildlife gardening, the bumblebee campaign and what they hope to do in Newtown.
There will also be an opportunity to make seed bombs! It's a great activity to do with children, they can get a bit messy (and adults as well!) and then take the seed bomb home to plant in the garden.
