Bristol Walk Fest x May Day x Wild Plants of Netham Park

We're excited that for the third year running, we're part of Bristol Walk Fest yay! This year, we're combining our BWF walks with our Meet Up sessions to introduce people to this group.

Tickets for this event are free - but limited on Meet Up, as we've released the others elsewhere for BWF.

If you're able to make a small donation to support this ongoing work, anything would be greatly appreciated. Click here to make a donation ahead of the session.

As always, this walk is part of a series of 2 x monthly walks we host at low-cost.

Our mission is to remove barriers to wild plant, foraging and medicinal knowledge.

Details:
We'll meet at 2pm at the main Pavillion area of Netham Park on Avonvale Road and take a stroll round the edges, down to the canal and up again to see which wild plants are abundant. We will see the the bursting linden leaves, yarrow and first summer flowers as well as bugs and birdlife. We'll have lots of opportunity to chat, ask questions, share knowledge, recipes and experiences.

What to bring:
- everything you'd need for a comfortable time outside like water, a notepad, comfy clothes and sturdy shoes
- tupperware if you'd like to take home any plants we find
