My childhood dream growing up in South London was different to other kids. They laughed at me, but I didn’t care

I now own the ancient woodland that could only be afforded by me because of my parents legacy

It is my immortal memory of them

We had a great day in Co. Westmeath with our Plant Field Day on Peatland Habitats. A great introduction to bog plants and sphagnum mosses.

Thanks a million to George Smith for leading an enjoyable and informative field day.
