About the event

All of these support a range of key plant species, many of which are at their peak in June. The course will focus on the common species you are likely to encounter on any walk in the countryside, but as Kingcombe boasts such an impressive list of species we will also touch on a few more unusual things as we encounter them. Suitable for any level of experience from beginner upwards
