Event details
About the event
Butterflies are an important part of the ecosystem and are great to have in your garden. Unfortunately they are in decline across the UK.
In this session, you will find out how you can help butterflies where you live and build your own wooden butterfly house to provide shelter for butterflies throughout the year, including over the winter when some species hibernate.
You'll also get a butterfly booklet and spotter sheet.
This activity involves the use of hand tools and requires close adults supervision. It is most suitable for ages 5+.
Please book a ticket for each box you would like to build (i.e. if you'd like to build a single box as a family, just purchase one ticket).
