Floodplain meadows: Zoom talk

Post by LauraM »

All are welcome to join the next Carmarthenshire Meadows Group talk to be held on Zoom on Thursday 10th February at 7.30pm.
Leila Thornton (Natural Resources Wales) will be telling us about the history, wildlife and conservation status of floodplain meadows.
About this event:
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.
Leila's talk will last 50-60 minutes, and there will be plenty of time afterwards for questions and discussion.

The talk is free to CMG members and £2 for non-members.
Tickets can be bought here
