We are glad to invite you to our amazing annual event at Hill Close Gardens. This year, we are calling it 'Bee Wild', and entry is free! Although entry is free, Hill Close Gardens would appreciate donations for their 30-year-anniversary essential repairs restoration appeal.
This year, we have more exhibitors: the Warwickshire Mammal Group, the Warwickshire Bat Group and a display from the local hedgehog rescue team. There will also be a poetry reading by local poet Matt Black, music and storyboards of' Fletcher & the Bee' by local author Julia Rawlinson. There will also be engaging demos on Weaving and Woodworking, more activities for children and more gift stalls.
The popular rock painting and crafting activities are back, as are making seed bombs, the insect hunt and the find-the-word trail around the gardens. Children who come dressed as insects will receive a small goody!
We will have information and leaflets on the best plants for pollinators year-round and plenty of plants to buy. Wildlife-friendly gardens (or the intention to create one ) can be added to a local map to help connect habitats across Warwick. Plus, we will have examples of good solitary bee houses and info on how to make your own or where you can buy them.
There will also be honey, bee-themed gifts, cute knitted and crocheted items, art, aromatherapy soaps, knits, bags, and jewellery to buy.
We expect it to be a fun day with something for everyone to enjoy. Please sign up so we can estimate the number of people coming and provide supplies accordingly.
