Flora Locale training 2010: Heathland and bog
Restoring and establishing dwarf shrub heath and mire
 
Ref N3
Tuesday 16 November 
Liverpool
Facilitator: Penny Anderson, Penny Anderson Associates
 
The focus of this day will be on dwarf shrub heathland and wet heath/mires in the uplands and lowlands, as the issues and requirements are similar, focusing on vegetation and hydrology. Find out how to get the soils right so that you can restore dwarf shrub heathland from grassland or forestry, create it from scratch from arable land, or restore blanket bog and wet heath. We will also explore wider ecosystem services offered from restoration, including carbon sequestration and storage, flood risk reduction and improvement in water quality.

Fee £110 / £85 concessions including lunch (see booking form for more details)
