Garden Ponds for Wildlife
Wye Gardeners talks are held in Wye Small Village Hall and start at 7.30pm please arrive after 7.00pm
Wye Gardeners Welcome you to a talk by Richard Griffiths
Richard is an Emeritus Professor of Biological Conservation at the University of Kent, who will most likely encourage us all to have a pond in our gardens.
Richard has spent the past 30 years involved the conservation and protection of wetland habitats at home and abroad. This talk will focus on the creation and management of garden ponds for wildlife, including siting and construction, the plants and animals that are likely to colonize ponds in the Wye area, and tips on dealing with problems that might arise. It will also touch on some of the latest research on the amphibians to be found in small ponds and initiatives to promote ponds and their wildlife in the wider countryside.
Everyone is welcome to come to our talks.
Why not join the society and come to all of our talks for free, its only £15 for the year.
Otherwise we charge £5 for each talk if you are not a member.
We hope you will join us in February.
As usual there will be a raffle after the talk followed by refreshments.
