SUMMARY:Step Into Nature - Guided Woodland Walk
DESCRIPTION:Our free monthly guided woodland walk – Step Into Nature \nThe next walk together is on 21st July\, 10am at Standish Wood Lane\, WN6 8RA  and will be led by Victoria – we’ll gently enjoy the sights and sounds of these beautiful woodlands through the seasons. Please note\, this month it’s on a Tuesday\, not the regular Friday!! \nStarting in Beech Hill this month\, we’ll explore local woodlands now we’re coming into Spring\, a perfect way to get outdoors\, meet new friends\, and discover hidden corners of our local green spaces. The walk is approximately 3 miles long with some uneven paths\, a bit of a hill and a few small steps\, and is free to attend. \nWe don’t mind a bit of rain or sunshine\, so dress for the weather! \nIt is usually the 4th Friday of each month at 10am. The starting point may alter very slightly month to month\, but we will make sure to update you. \nBooking is preferred\, but not necessary. It’s just so we know to wait for you. Or if you prefer to text that’s fine\, 07768202818

SUMMARY:The Secret Life of Butterflies - Family Activity
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the world of butterflies and moths! \nWant to see a real-life caterpillar up close? Here’s your chance! With their little suction-cup feet\, which help them climb branches\, and their ability to camouflage themselves from predators\, they’re fascinating creatures. \nJoin us in the community garden – 22nd July 10:30am  – 12pm to experience for yourself.  \nDid you know that caterpillars don’t have the best eyesight? They find their way through vibrations\, usually through faint (or really fluffy) hairs on their body\, and through smell to find food. \nDid you also know that caterpillars can be fussy eaters? Caterpillars have a host plant\, or several host plants. A caterpillar would rather starve itself than eat something they don’t want. They’re a bit like a three-year-old who doesn’t like vegetables! \nFinally\, caterpillars become goo in their cocoons\, where their whole body changes shape. But\, miraculously\, butterflies retain some memory from their caterpillar stage! \nWant to find out more – or hold a real caterpillar? Then come along to our workshop! \nFree to attend\, no booking required. \n\nWe’ll also have our regular gentle community gardening session.\n\nSt Anne’s Community Garden\, Beech Hill Avenue\, Wigan WN6 7TA (In between the church & the community centre)\n\nThis event is funded by the National Lottery as part of a year-long programme of family environmental events in Wigan Borough\, helping us support community action and care for local green spaces.\nEvent organised and facilitated by The Community Patch CIC\nAny questions\, please email us on hello@giveitagrowwigan.co.uk
