Hanningfield Nature Journaling and Phenology: Winter Edition

Explore and connect with Winter at Hanningfield. Escape the post-Christmas chaos! Through nature journaling, the session will explore phenology- the study of natural seasonal changes. Designed for adults, this short course and presentation will guide you through our woodland, identifying its flora, fauna, and seasonal elements. Our discoveries will be transposed through art, doodles, poetry, creative writing, or how you see fit. You will learn about these discoveries during the session and it makes a great gift for Christmas. This event is suitable for 16 and over (under 18s must be accompanied by an adult).
