Volunteering day: Wellness Weeding

Help us prepare the sphagnum moss for it's new home

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

We are growing our own sphagnum moss as part of our moorland restoration ambition.

This year, we have had a few challenges which have meant that the sphagnum moss has been left out in the elements for longer than anticipated and now needs weeding ahead of it moving into its new home, a cosy polytunnel.

Join us for a cuppa and a natter and enjoy a mindful hour while learning about this special moss and how it can help us rewet the moor and contribute to climate change.

These will be drop-in sessions, 5 mins or an hour – every little helps!
