Meetings


Every year we organise a full programme of outings to interesting sites in Wiltshire or neighbouring counties, where the leader and members share their knowledge of plants and their habitats. Please car share if possible to all of our meetings.


DOWNLOAD OUR 2026 MEETINGS PROGRAMME.  As always, it's packed with exciting places to go and enjoy plants, their habitats and the company of like-minded folk. Do join us.


To offer a venue for a future meeting or for other field meeting enquiries please contact the Field Meetings Organiser  Fran Sinclair.

 

We regret that we are unable to accommodate dogs on our field meetings.

Our Next Meeting

Saturday 27th June 10.30am

WWT Distillery Meadows, near Minety


Leader: Nick Self 


A hint of how the countryside looked in the early 20th Century when it was covered with small, traditionally managed, family run farms. Across the various fields we will see Heath Spotted-orchids and Common Spotted-orchids Dactylorhiza maculata and D. fuchsii. We will probably be too early for Saw-wort Serratula tinctoria but its buds are every bit as attractive as flowers. These fields are part of the SSSI here and Nick will tell us about the management and its challenges. 


Park at SU 0314 8923 / W3W masts.tooth.braced. There is space for only a few cars here so please book with Fran Sinclair by 20th June so that we will know whether we need to arrange additional parking.
