A Tree Day
Saturday 12 August 2023 | 10am - 6pm
Sherwood Pines
What would we be without trees, and how can we appreciate them more?
We'll look at trees in many ways, starting with the basics of how they grow and how they 'work'. Then we'll get to know some trees through their wood, twigs, bark leaves and seeds and use each tree as a prompt to understand themes of culture, ecology, crafts, history and more.
This workshop combines outdoor time, hands-on sessions and classroom learning. It will open up a general interest in trees and will encourage you to observe well to get a wider understanding and appreciation of trees, with the skills and confidence to take this interest further. No prior knowledge required, just an interest in trees!
This event has been supported by Patrick Harding's Legacy. Patrick worked with Forestry England's Sherwood Pines to deliver educational walks and talks for many years. We are very grateful for this kind donation and honoured that we can continue Patrick's legacy and passion by offering engaging learning experiences such as this event, within the forest that he loved so much.
