WORKSHOPS  

 

In 2023 we held six workshops and two field meetings, covering between them plant families, grasses, ferns and habitat surveying. We were delighted to welcome many professional participants from environmental consultancies as well as keen amateurs to all these events. The participants on the workshops receive a free copy of the appropriate booklet such as thePocket Guide to Wildflower Families.

​

The format of our Plant Families workshops, based on the Pocket Guide to Wildflower Families, is also being used for other workshops, such as those run by The Conservation Volunteers and Historic Scotland.  The BSBI in Wales have adopted our Plant Families approach and  have held a number of very successful meetings. For further details of our own and other BSBI events (you don't have to be a member to attend) click here https://bsbi.org/field-meetings-and-indoor-events.

You can also see a workshops in action on YouTube at youtube.com/watch?v=gSZNoTQ02_8&ab_channel=BotanicalSocietyofBritainandIreland

​

 

If you would like a workshop arranged for your area, get in touch with me, Faith, and I will see what I can do, as the format and materials are available to any member of the Botanical Society of Britain & Ireland who wants to lead a workshop and could also be adapted for other suitable workshop leaders.
