Urban Botany Walk

FREE EVENT

Date: Saturday 20th September 2025

Time: 10:30am - 12:00pm

Location: Meet at the bottom of the steps between Pasley Street and Blockhouse Park. What3Words: ///dragon.feel.open

Join the Green Communities and Rebel Botanists to discover the incredible wild plants growing along Pasley Street. We'll have a gentle walk along the street, learning how to identify different plants, and their benefits to both the environment and us. We'll get the chance to chalk the pavement to raise awareness about the amazing plants on our doorsteps. 

At the end of the walk we'll do some street gardening- learning about which plants are good for which insects. It’ll also be a chance to learn more about how the project is working alongside communities to make their neighbourhoods even better for wildlife and for people.

Find out more about Rebel Botanists here and Green Communities here.
