Building on the success of our Wild Wednesdays biodiversity monitoring program, Sculpture by the Lakes is thrilled to kick off this year’s series with a special Science Day event during the Dorchester Science Festival.
Our Wild Wednesdays have provided a platform for visitors to engage in hands-on learning experiences, and this Science Day aims to expand on that by offering a comprehensive exploration of the natural world.
The Science Day serves as an exciting and enriching extension of our Wild Wednesdays, inviting participants to delve into various aspects of our local ecosystem.
This event will cover a range of activities, including:
- Discovering the benefits of biochar and no-dig methods in sustainable gardening, as we delve into the importance of nurturing our environment for future generations.
- Learning about the fascinating world of moths and their crucial role in our ecosystem.
Experiencing the excitement of pond dipping, uncovering the diverse aquatic life that thrives beneath the water’s surface. Embarking on a journey into the intriguing realms of fungi and lichens, and developing an appreciation for the critical roles they play in our ecosystem.
Expanding your knowledge of medicinal plants and their healing properties, as we explore the importance of natural remedies in promoting wellness.
Join us for this special edition of Wild Wednesdays as we celebrate the launch of this year’s series with an unforgettable Science Day experience at Sculpture by the Lakes. Immerse yourself in the wonders of the natural world and contribute to the ongoing conservation efforts that help protect it.
