For National Nest Box Week join us for a FREE workshop on Friday 21st February at Endecott House, Chagford and make a bird box to install in the parishes of Chagford and Moretonhampstead.

Many of us are aware of how vital it is to feed our garden birds, but it’s also just as important that they have a suitable shelter and site for breeding. With natural habitats such as trees and hedgerows being lost to development, some of our garden birds struggle to find a safe shelter to rear their young. With the nesting season not that far away, our garden birds will be starting to prepare for their busiest time of year.

With kind thanks to Bradfords Moretonhampstead for generously donating the materials we will making as many bird boxes as possible to install in the parishes of Chagford and Moreton. Families and children are welcome to come and make a bird box for their garden as well as boxes to be installed in the community spaces.

This FREE event runs from 11am-4pm and is a perfect half term activity for children and families. Please book a ticket for the time you would like to attend so that we can accommodate you, one ticket per family. Tea, coffee, squash and biscuits will be provided.

Please wear suitable clothing for working in and stout footwear. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
