Autumn Woodlands and November Events
November brings shorter days and with daylight dwindling all the more reason for an early morning walk into one of Powys's beautiful ancient forests. Walking in woodland has been proven to lift our mood and promote memory with the aromas of pine after rainfall as well as aid sleep and vit. D production. Forests are actually carbon sinks - especially the ancient woodlands, plus winter time is perfect for tree-planting. Ancient woodland such as Carngafallt nr Rhayder, where lichens and bryophtyes cloak the woodland in shades of soothing green, make a perfect day out. Check out links to initiatives you can contribute to with a community group over at Powys Green Guide. Meet new people and be a positive force in helping nature!

Changing your default internet browser to Ecosia can even help plant more trees.
Check out The Woodland Trust or Radnorshire Wildlife Trust or Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust for more ideas.
What can you do right now to promote biodiversity? Speak with your Town or Community Council; they are required to complete a Section 6 Report every 3 years on how they are promoting biodiversity. Energy consumption is key. See our website for ideas.
