Floodplain Meadows

Carmarthenshire Meadows Group

Leila Thornton (Natural Resources Wales) will be telling us about the history, wildlife and conservation status of floodplain meadows.

Floodplain meadows generate a sustainable and prized hay crop, provide an important nectar source for pollinating insects, and support rare plant communities. They also provide flood-storage areas, trap sediment and store carbon, and will be increasingly valued for these functions as the climate changes. They provide a link with the past, and are a living reminder of traditional, rural landscapes and the ways of life that created them.This meeting will be held using Zoom, which is free and easy to use. You can see the talk and ask questions from the comfort of your own home. Leila's talk will last 50-60 minutes, and there will be plenty of time afterwards for questions and discussion.

The meetings on Zoom organised by the Carmarthenshire Meadows Group (CMG) are free to CMG members to attend, as are our village hall indoor meetings, which we hope to resume post-pandemic. Non-members are also welcome to attend, but as with the indoor meetings, we ask non-members to pay an entry fee. For the Zoom meetings, this is £2.00. When you have bought your ticket, you'll be sent the details of how to enter the Zoom meeting (a link, meeting ID, and passcode). Or, you can become a member of CMG by visiting: https://membermojo.co.uk/cmg.
