Running 100 miles for @YoungMindsUK deserves a couple of quid I reckon. The amazing @01Mikes will be running the South Downs way over 4 days of the October half term 🙌🙌🙌

These Smooth Cat’s-ear (Hypochaeris glabra) seeds have been collected from Rye Harbour NR as part of the UK Threatened Flora Project at the Millennium Seed Bank. The project aims to conserve collections of seeds across the entire UK distributions of each of our target species.

Another success for our work with @Kew_MSBUK - a wonderful day of seed collecting among the fields alongside our fab Colour in the Margins project: https://t.co/Wu68X2HLzU. It's so satisfying to know that the seeds they collected will help the future of rare plants. @Love_plants

A beautiful event held by @Kew_MSBUK & our Colour in the Margins team - seed harvesting for depositing to Kew's seed stores!
