Event Audience: Children

Join our education ranger for a minibeast session focusing on Moths!

This morning session will involve inspecting a moth trap that was left out overnight (weather permitting). Work with our ranger to identify and record the moths that are on site before setting them free.

Learn about the differences between moths and butterflies, and why they are just as important. You will find out what threatens our moths and why these surveys are needed to monitor their decline.

This event is open to all ages and families are welcome.

Take a morning tour around Foxburrows Farm, discover the animals that live here, and help to give some of them their breakfast.

Starting before the Farm is open to the public, this tour will teach you about the animals that we have on the farm, including how some can help to manage the forest. There will also be the opportunity to feed some animals (please note that we cannot guarantee feeding specific animals)

The tour will last approximately 50 minutes. The tour will start promptly at 9am

Visiting a farm is an enjoyable experience, but does carries a small risk of catching infection from animals or the environment, Particularly for those who are young, elderly, immunocompromised or pregnant. Health and safety information will be given at the start, and a link is provided here for more information: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5cbef14440f0b649e50f9d9e/Farm_visits_avoiding_infection.pdf

As it is difficult to stop very young children putting their hands in their mouths after touching the animals, we advise that children under 3 years old do not attend the farm tour.

Decorate your own butterfly made with natural materials, and learn about the butterflies and moths that are found in the Forest. We will also go on a butterfly hunt (weather permitting) to see what species we can find!

All materials are provided for the craft and you will be able to take your creation straight home with you.

This is a family friendly activity aimed at children aged 4-7

This event will last approximately 60 minutes
