It's #NationalTreeWeek! An ongoing project here at NEYEDC is our part in the national update of the Ancient Woodland Inventory, now lead by our EDO Josie. You can read more about Ancient Woodland, its importance, and why we're re-mapping it here: https://t.co/oIspmKHz6l 🌳🌲

A fantastic first day at our #NatSCA2023 conference. Lovely to have the family back together in person (and online!) again!

[Lydia Dean @Lydiolect]

Really inspiring papers at the morning session of #NatSCA2023 - I was excited to see examples of the value of archival collections in re-examining and reinterpreting collections 💚 looking forward to this afternoon!

[Herbarium Manchester @Aristolochia]

Fascinating to hear @KMGlassman 's research to unravel Hooker's Flora Boreali-Americana and to follow the threads which lead to the undervalued contributions of women botanists #NatSCA2023
