Botanist and BSBI member Falgunee Sarker got in touch a few weeks ago to tell me about a training day she was involved in and to ask if I could send her some BSBI leaflets to distribute to those attending the session. I was happy to do this (if you are organising a training session and would like some leaflets, just email me and I'll post you some material).
"Twelve people participated in this free event. The course provided basic identification knowledge of flowers, grasses, sedges, rushes and ferns. All the attendants were encouraged to join the BSBI".
Nick says "I have put together a series of 6 one-day plant identification workshops - the aim is to try and help NPMS volunteers with some of the more difficult groups, so that they can progress from recording at Wildflower Level up to Indicator Level".
Here are the dates and locations of the six workshops and the groups of plants on which they focus:
Monday 8th June Reading University, Berkshire Grasses
Saturday 13th June
Fearby, North Yorkshire Sedges
Wednesday 17th June Lockington,
Derby Grasses
Tuesday 23rd June Willand,
Devon Sedges
Wednesday 15th July Hockwold-cum-Wilton, Norfolk Aquatic Plants
Saturday 18th July Weobley, Herefordshire Ferns
