About this Event
This Easter, come to Lorton Meadows Conservation Centre for a fun, hands-on activity! Learn how to weave willow into your very own bird feeder using natural materials. Perfect for fat balls you can then take it home to feed your garden birds this spring. There is a short guided walk around part of the reserve after the willow weaving event, bring binoculars if you have them.
Get crafty, learn a new skill and give our feathered friends a tasty treat! 🐦💚
