This year’s 2019 Festival is on the weekend 14 – 15th December. If you can come along & help put it together on the Thurs/Fri before please contact the BNA Essex email, essex@bna-naturalists.org. We normally construct the ‘tree’ from clippings & trimmings from appropriate garden trees & make it each year to a wildlife/nature theme, with decorations featuring hedgehogs, mice, snails, ladybirds & other species. It is an opportunity to help promote the British Naturalists’ Association’s local Essex Branch to a local community & to encourage a further interest in nature.

If you can’t get along to help, do try to visit the BNA Essex ‘tree’ during the Festival.
