Join us at the beautiful rural site of the Stendhal festival on Ballmully farm for a morning of native tree seed collection and processing depending on what is ripe and ready to pick!
Learn how to identify native tree and hedgerow species and methods of seed collection, before taking our harvest back to the farm for a practical workshop on how to process and store seed.
Please bring your own packed lunch/snacks and something to drink. Tea, coffee and treats will be provided.
M eeting Point: Meeting 10.00am in the farmyard at Ballmully farm (Ballmully Cottage Farm, Limavady BT49 0NQ)
Please register in advance via the ticket link.
Approach from the Ballyavelin road and you will see the wooden sign with a roof for Ballmully Cottage farm. Follow the concete lane to the farm buildings at the end of the lane. Please car share to the site where possible, and please do not block any gates or entrances when parking as this is a busy working farm.
W hat to bring: Be prepared for all weather conditions, so make sure to pack waterproofs and sun protection. Wellies or boots are required as the ground is wet and uneven underfoot, and a change of socks is always a good idea. Equipment for seed collection will be provided, but please do bring your own bags/buckets to take home some seeds, and gardening gloves if required.
