7pm start – until late!
We are hosting an event for National Moth Night 2009 here on the remote chalk downland location at Sheepdrove Organic Farm, Lambourn, Friday 18 September, set up from 7pm.
Have you ever been to a moth night? There will be several ‘light traps’ in action, with bright lamps which draw moths into a container where they can be watched and identified. Our herb garden at the back of the Eco Conference Centre is the special setting for our nocturnal discoveries!
Everyone is welcome!
The variety of moth shapes and coloration can be mind-boggling, so specialists will be on hand to help us understand which moths fly in! We have a wide range of moths living near the gardens, because of the other habitats nearby – ponds, chalk grassland, hedges and ancient woodland.
Join us for a great night out with a difference!
Tea, coffee and biscuits provided.
Location: Sheepdrove Eco Conference Centre, Sheepdrove Road, RG17 7UU. Satnav users beware – enter road name NOT postcode.
