About the event
Have you ever wondered how to identify a tree when it's lost its leaves? Join us for this family event to find out! We will use bud, bark and shape to identify the trees that dot Sweet Briar Marshes - we'll even learn how to use our own bodies to measure their height!
Each family group must have at least one adult attending. Adults do not need to book a ticket.
Please note the exact start point information will be shared with you a few days before the event.
