What you need to know

Over the past 29 years Carymoor Environmental Trust has transformed 80 acres of a capped landfill site into an incredible nature reserve with meadows, woodland and wetlands.

 

Funded by Somerset Wildlife Trust, this session will give insight into Carymoor’s current project to create new areas of wildflower meadow on their nature reserve. The project aims to provide more flowers for pollinators and to improve the connectivity on the Carymoor nature reserve. Led by Neil Gemmell, Caymoor’s Community Ranger, the day will involve a practical opportunity to get involved in the project, helping to plant wildflower plug plants, broadcast seed and more.

Carymoor shares its site and main entrance with the Dimmer recycling site and Waste Transfer Station.

Please be aware that there are often heavy vehicles moving around the site so a speed limit of 10mph is in operation.

Please stop at the traffic lights at the main entrance, joining the back of any queuing vehicles, and wait for a green light before driving through. Bear left before the weighbridge, go over the hill past the compost  until you reach the car park on the left, just before our Education Centre.
