About the event

Traditional orchards are much more than places where fruit is grown. They can support a rich variety of wildlife, from pollinating insects and birds to fungi, lichens and plants associated with old trees and deadwood.

Join the Bridgnorth Branch of Shropshire Wildlife Trust for an evening with Wade Muggleton, exploring the importance of traditional orchards and the wildlife they support.

“Traditional Orchards and their Wildlife” will look at these distinctive habitats and the role they can play in supporting biodiversity. Discover more about the ecological value of old fruit trees, orchard habitats and the wildlife that depends upon them.
