Scything & Wildflowers at Ury Riverside Park

Get your hands dirty learning to scythe and discover the beauty of wildflowers! Join us for a CWNE scything and wildflower event where you can take part in one of two hands-on activities supporting traditional meadow management and biodiversity. 🚫 Please note: you must choose either scything or wildflowers when booking – it is not possible to do both at this event. Choose your activity: • Scything: Work alongside experienced practitioners to learn how to use a scythe safely and effectively, helping to clear vegetation and create space for new growth as part of long-term site management. • Wildflowers: Focus on growing wildflowers, including seed collecting, germination techniques, and potting, learning practical skills to support pollinators and habitats. This event offers a great opportunity to connect with nature, build conservation skills, and learn more about local flora and fauna. The session is delivered in collaboration with Outdoor & Woodland Learning Scotland, Curam Fyvie, and the Ury Riverside Park team. 🌼 Important: While there are other scything and wildflower events taking place elsewhere that you may wish to attend, this will be the last scything and wildflower event of the year, so don’t miss out. The exact location will be shared closer to the date. Spaces are limited and booking is essential, so please make sure you select the correct ticket for the activity you wish to take part in. No prior experience is required. Just enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. Please wear comfortable clothing and sturdy footwear suitable for outdoor work. Come and enjoy a rewarding day outdoors, working together to support nature and biodiversity. We look forward to seeing you there 🌿 Tickets are available to book on Monday 15th June.
