Go Wild About Lincolnshire on Sunday 24 October

Baytree Garden Centre near Spalding is hosting Lincolnshire´s biggest wildlife and natural history fair.

WAL09_Steve_Lovell_5.JPGCome along to the “Wild About Lincolnshire” marquee at Baytree Garden Centre at any time from 10am until 4pm on Sunday 24 October 2010.  It will be an enjoyable family day out; bustling with busy stands and hands on activities provided by wildlife and conservation organisations.  Free parking and free admission.  

Whether you enjoy the wildlife in your garden, are an intrepid explorer of Lincolnshire’s fine countryside, or simply curious about bats, bees, birds or badgers then come and meet a host of friendly experts.  There will be enough enthusiasm and inspiration to keep the most knowledgeable wildlife supporters happy and for beginners, the day may spark a love of the natural world, which could last a lifetime.
 
John Badley, event co-organiser and RSPB site manager said:  "Lincolnshire’s natural world is worth protecting and worth celebrating.  Come and join us for this very special event where everyone who is wild about Lincolnshire is welcome."
 
A visitor to Wild About Lincolnshire in 2009 said:  "Most enjoyable day - children thoroughly enjoyed themselves (ages 8 & 11).  Looking forward to next year."
