About this Event

The BSBI New Year Plant Hunt runs for four days each year and aims to track how our wild and naturalised plans are reacting to changing weather conditions.

Join NHSN Senior Naturalist, James Common, for a morning of urban wildflowers as together, we see how many species we can find in bloom around St. Peter's Basin. Wild species, garden escapes, urban invaders, we'll look for them all.

Please wear decent walking boots. Do feel free to bring a hand lens or handy field guide. Together, we'll explore urban areas of St. Peter's before heading towards the Lower Ouseburn where we can grab a coffee before exploring walls and pavements nearby.

If you take any photos while attending the event, please do share them with NHSN by emailing [email protected].
