Plants of the Moors and Mires for Beginners – Part Two: Grasses, Rushes and Sedges 

Join the Exmoor Mires Partnership for a session building on the botanical ID skills learnt in Part One (28/05/2019). This time we will focus on getting to grips with the basics of what are often considered some of the more ‘difficult’ plants: grasses, rushes, and sedges. Learn how to tell the groups apart, the important features of each, and how to identify a few of the more frequently encountered species. A session aimed at building confidence in those with little or no previous experience of botanical identification.

A day split between the classroom at the Pinkery Centre and the mires nearby. Bring outdoor clothing and a packed lunch.

Booking essential as places are limited.

Cost £5 per person - which contributes to the CareMoor for Exmoor scheme, supporting heritage, nature and access projects on Exmoor. Discounts available for Exmoor National Park volunteers.
