2014 at Dacres Wood Nature Reserve

[Tim Lund]

Just to say that this year we're again going to be opening the reserve up on the last Saturday of each month - starting this month, April 26th, 1.00- 4.00 pm.

As well as just showing you around - or letting you look round by yourselves - most months we're also hoping to organise a special event - the current plans being

• May 31st- Teddy bear’s picnic
• June 28th – TBA
• July 26th – Creepy Crawlies day (bug collecting etc)
• August 30th – a tree survey, to learn about the different trees in the nature reserve and map them out
• September 27th – looking at container gardening and hopefully a new irrigation system for the raised beds
• October 25th – building bird boxes ready for 2015

I'm going to be organising the tree survey - and not just trees, in fact - and it's possible we'll bring it forward to June.

Any help - and potentially for other events if you're interested - welcome, so contact the Friends via our web site, PM me or email me if you have my email address.

Thanks very much for the post. I may take you up on the offer . It's not something I would have considered, but if the weather is good, then it would be great to see the open spaces (and wildlife) of Sydenham!

Thanks Tim

May pop in this Sat.

Have been a few years ago and very interesting , as is the Devonshire Rd nature reserve which was only 3 mins from my old Flat.

Great we have these green areas.

Hope to pop in to see a bit more of my new(ish) neighbourhood!
