Spring Flower Walk on the Farm

Spring Flower Walk in full flow - M. Ayling
The Friends of Chesworth Farm hosted their first public event of 2014 today in wonderful conditions. The Spring Flower Walk went down a storm with a good number attending and plenty of bits to keep the group occupied.

Most of the spring species which were expected around the Farm such as Primrose, Lesser Celandine (above), Cuckooflower and Greater Stitchwort were all seen during the mornings saunter. It was a nice opportunity for the leader Tim to also explain a little about the up and coming projects on the Farm as well as bit of the history too.

Many thanks to the Friends of Chesworth Farm and in particular Tim and Mike for arranging and leading the event. Hopefully these kind of events will attract more people to the Farm with varying levels of interest and expertise.
