Age 11-17? Join the Fens Youth Rangers to learn practical conservation skills for free. This month: Gardening skills and wildlife survey!
Youth Rangers is a group for secondary-aged young people (11-17 years) keen to make a positive difference to their local environment. We meet throughout the year at various Cambridgeshire nature reserves and would love to welcome you to our group.
Join us for another fantastic session of learning real, practical conservation skills from industry professionals and making a positive impact for wildlife. You do not need any experience to attend. This month we'll be at Ramsey Walled Garden to discover its history, help with gardening tasks and survey for wildlife within the gardens. The Walled Garden is thought to date back to 1840 and is today cared for by a dedicated team of volunteers with a variety of fruits, vegetables and flowers growing. In 2025, the gardens welcome visitors as part of the Apple and Harvest Fair in collaboration with the Wildlife Trust BCN Great Fen team.
