Sat. 25th October. WOODLAND AUTUMN WALK
Meet Dawn Thomas of Nature Days at 2.00 p.m. at the back of the car park at Oxwich, there is a charge. (Follow A4118 turn left towards Oxwich, go down hill to car park.)
We will stroll along to the church and amble through Oxwich woods. See if you can count the number of steps up the hill, evidently they are impossible to count! Once within the woods we will search for the trees of tomorrow. Collect seeds and look at the amazing colours of autumn. When we exit the woods we will plant the seeds in pots which you can take home to watch the new seedling grow as you start a woodland of your own.
