Meadow seed harvesting, farm trails and a green festival all feature on the calendar for the Shropshire Love Nature Festival which is underway across the county.
The festival will run for three weeks to August 6 with almost 40 events aimed at connecting Shropshire people with the county’s beautiful natural surroundings. It is sponsored and organised by the Shropshire Good Food Partnership.
They include the Cambrian Railway orchard project sited alongside the railway line in Oswestry, a meadow seed harvesting workshop in Ratlinghope, the Shropshire Young Ramblers litter pick and events organised by Shropshire Wildlife Trust including a virtual seashore. Also on August 5 will be the Shropshire Outdoor Show at the Preston Montford field centre near Shrewsbury.
Paul Newman of the Shropshire Good Food Partnership said the Shropshire Love Nature Festival was designed to highlight the work that was already going on in Shropshire to connect people with their natural surroundings.
