About this Event

The BSBI (https://bsbi.org/) New Year Plant Hunt runs for four days each year and aims to track how our wild and naturalised plants are reacting to changing weather conditions.

Join NHSN Naturalist, Matthew Harrison, for a morning of urban wildflowers as we see together how many species we can find in bloom on the streets of Heaton. Wild species, garden escapes, urban invaders, we'll look for them all.

Please wear decent walking boots. Do feel free to bring a hand lens or handy field guide. Together, we'll explore urban areas of Heaton before moving east towards Heaton Park.

If you take any photos while attending the event, please do share them with NHSN by emailing matthew.harrison@newcastle.ac.uk.
