Butterflies on a Dales farm
Talk by Tom Lord.
Tuesday, April 30th, 19.30. Friends Meeting House, Settle.
£3.00.
Conservationist and hill farmer Tom Lord gives an illustrated
talk about the butterflies to be seen on his hill farm and their
importance in maintaining bio-diversity in the Dales.
Tom farms Lower Winskill to encourage wildlife and getting the
habitat right for butterflies is a key aspect of how the
wildflower-rich hay meadows are managed.
There is an associated walk up to his farm at Lower Winskill earlier in the
day.
