Farming for Curlew
A farmer-led evening of food and discussions on the future of Curlew.
Event details
About the event
Hear from a farmer-led panel discussion alongside conservationists who are actively working to help Curlew, sharing practical experiences, challenges and successes.
The UK’s largest wading bird, the Curlew is rapidly declining from the landscape and is projected to become extinct in Wales by 2033. Not only is this iconic bird a vital part of Welsh heritage, culture, art and wellbeing, protecting this keystone species helps safeguard a wide range of other wildlife and habitats
Curlew Connections Wales is working with landowners, farmers and communities across Wales to help secure the future of this magnificent bird – and you can be part of that journey too.
Enjoy a free supper made with locally sourced ingredients, including a seasonal stew, a selection of Welsh cheeses, and refreshments throughout the evening.
Booking essential – RSVP by Friday 6th February to Frances@monwt.co.uk - Please include any dietary requirements.
