Friendly, practical workshops run by leading naturalists. From wild food-foraging and composting to bird song and insect identification, explore biodiversity on our doorstep. Trees: Their role in urban environments We all encounter trees in our daily lives but have you ever thought about what they do for you? If you would like to learn more about the role that trees play in urban environments then this is the workshop for you. City of Trees is a new Greater Manchester-wide movement which aims to plant 3 million trees over the next 20 years. As the team leading the movement, we will be looking at some of our recent tree planting projects, providing an insight into the benefits that trees provide and looking at their influence on air quality, flood risk, city temperatures and more. This workshop will help you to develop an understanding of what trees do for us and how they are vital in making Manchester a better place to live and work.
