Local resident and insect specialist Nessa Darcy has received Dublin Bay Biosphere funding to run a series of workshops, walks and talks in the local area over the coming months.
Nessa will be launching the programme at 7.30pm on Thursday 19th March at Mount Merrion Community Centre, with a workshop about how we can use our gardens and parks to support nature and nourish us in this time of ecological crisis.
This is a free event but booking is very helpful. email info@nessadarcy.ie
The workshop is for adults, although older children/teenagers who have an interest in the topic would be very welcome if accompanied by a guardian. For example, it would be wonderful to have some of the School Strike for Climate activists or any budding entomologists on board! There will be workshops for children and family groups in the coming months.
