👋MEET THE TEAM👋

Meet @_niahjones, a @NERCscience funded PhD student at @sos_bangor_uni. Nia is researching into how we can model the movement of #microplastic around our marine and coastal environments, investigating where #plasticpollution comes from, and where it goes!

[Treborth Botanic Garden @TreborthBG]

Natalie here! Micro-greens from pot to plate in about 2 weeks! #growyourown @BangorUni @BangorSNS @GROWBangor @S_LabBangor

[GROW Bangor @GROWBangor]

Following the social distancing guidelines, myself and @TreborthBG planted our @WoodlandTrust trees today. 🌲 Looking forward to seeing them grow!

[GROW Bangor @GROWBangor]

Don't worry though! Our @WoodlandTrust trees will still be planted by myself and @TreborthBG in the prepared area, and future gardening and planting events will be held when the situation improves.

Thank you for your understanding.

Important update!

Due to coronavirus concerns, unfortunately we're going to have to cancel our tree planting event on the 31st of March.

Student health is an absolute priority and we don't feel this event would be appropriate given current conditions.

🌲 See you there!!! 🌲

[Treborth Botanic Garden @TreborthBG]

Very excited to get them in the ground with you @GROWBangor !

[GROW Bangor @GROWBangor]

They're here! Huge thanks to @WoodlandTrust for our beautiful working wood trees and @TreborthBG for caring for them until planting! Our tree planting event will be taking place at @BangorUni with @BangorEnviro on the 31st of March. Watch this space for more details! 🌲

Oh, what's this I pricked out yesterday?? It's a whole bunch of the very rare, endemic Menai Strait Whitebeam, and there's even more to come! 🌱 @fossilplants

[GROW Bangor @GROWBangor]

Thank you @WT_Darren! We completely agree that preparation is key, and we have the fantastic advice of @TreborthBG to make sure our @WoodlandTrust trees have the best start possible! 👍🌳

[Darren Moorcroft (he/him) @WT_Darren]

As with most things, preparation is everything. No doubt @GROWBangor you will see the benefits, the trees will feel the benefits and the local communities (human and wildlife) will enjoy the benefits. 👍🌳 #EveryTreeCounts and so does #EveryTreePlanter

[GROW Bangor @GROWBangor]

Fantastic tree planting preparation! We de-turfed 3 areas ready for our @WoodlandTrust trees in March! 🌳 Thank you so much to all the amazing people that came out to help, provide tools and de-turfing tips, including members of the @BangorEnviro society and @TreborthBG ❤️
