Talk reminder: The Black Poplar Conservation Project on Thurs 10th

This month we have our last indoor meeting of the season on Thursday April 10th at 7.30pm in the Victoria Hall. Please note the date – unfortunately the incorrect date was published in the April Focus magazine. As usual, the doors (and the bar!) will be open from 7pm. Everyone welcome. Members are free and guests are asked to make a donation of £2.

Our very own Peter Shallcross will be talking about The Black Poplar Conservation Project. Peter is taking part in the project which involves identifying local old poplar trees, sampling, genetic studies and propagation.

​Below is a photo I took a few weeks ago of the information board alongside the footpath between Wick Farm and Hatch which explains the works that have been happening over the winter and include planting of black poplar saplings in our neighbourhood.
