Wytham Woods

A guided walk through Wytham Woods in springtime, followed by tea and a chat about nature or climate related books. Bring a book to share.

Join me, Kim Polgreen, Wytham Woods Youth Educator-in-Residence, for a guided walk around the Woods, followed by a chat about books. NB - this event is for adults (although you are welcome to bring your young people with you)!This is a fun, informal opportunity to meet other people who are interested in reading books and poetry about nature, climate, and related issues. Come and hear about the books and poems that others have read and to share your enthusiasm for something you've read (or if you are like me, like the look of, but haven't got round to reading yet!).I'll take you on a walk, tell you something about the wildlife we can see, and explain some of the research that is taking place there.Bring a book with you that you'd like to talk about: it would be lovely if you would read out a few paragraphs that you feel illustrate what you like about it.Meet at the main Woods car park at OX2 8QQ (accessed via Wytham Village) at 1.30pm. If you get to the car park late, call us (number will be on instruction email you get the day before) and we'll let you know where we are.We'll do tea and books outside so dress for the weather - it's always cooler on the hill than in the City.We'll end at the Chalet at 4pm so that you can get back to the car park for 4.30.If you would like to join in the book chat but can't manage the walk (it's about a mile up and incline, and then back down again), just get in touch and we can make a plan.
