This talk will explore some of the ideas and options involved in successful woodland design. Of the land the National Trust owns, ten percent is woodland and they have made a commitment to increase this to 17 percent over the next ten years, planting 20 million trees over the next decade. This talk is an opportunity to find out what this might mean to our local environment here in Nailsworth.

Stroud Community Seed Bank is passionate about bringing back varieties of fruit and vegetables that have been forgotten due to the rise of large scale agriculture. They provide seeds to the local community in exchange for donations in the hope that these lost treasures can be revived.

Would you love to grow your own vegetables but don't know where to start? Are you an experienced fruit grower but want to know how to look after your soil? Whether you are a total beginner with a few pots or a market gardener with a field, this talk will give you the knowledge you need to become a more confident gardener.

In this eyeopening talk, Chloe Turner from Stroud District Action on Plastics gives an insight into the work she does to support local businesses and organisations to reduce single-plastic use.
