Wander around the woods and grounds of Stoke Park with local conservationist Steve England, to learn how to identify the trees at this time of year, with and without their leaves, bark and buds and through their different growth stages.
Learn about their uses for fire and crafts, the ancient trees in the woodlands and the life cycle of the tree species around us, and how they play such an important role in nature. We will be looking at special features that make particular trees successful, and hear fascinating facts about these beautiful living woodland structures, whilst strolling the park in the coolest season of the year. This event takes place during National Tree Week 2024.
Please wear sturdy footwear and bring a notepad and pen. The walk will last approximately 2 hours on uneven ground. Dress accordingly for the weather. Suitable for 8+, content mainly aimed at adults.
The Stoke Park Project - what is it and why is my place funded?
The Stoke Park Project is a partnership between Bristol City Council, Lockleaze Neighbourhood Trust and Steve England Outdoor Learning that aims to connect with communities and users of Stoke Park Estate to find out priorities for the future of the estate, in particular the protection and improvement of historical assets.
This event is fully funded for you to attend but we ask for you to fill out the brief survey in return for your funded spot - it takes just a couple of minutes and will help shape the future of the parkland. You can fill out the survey here, and you will also receive this via email after the event. Please note this survey is hosted by Bristol City Council.
We request for any one individual to only book ONE funded space if possible throughout the programme please.
