A weekend for anyone relatively new to studying the grass family: one of the largest and most important group of flowering plants and one which plays a key role in many British plant communities.

The weekend concentrates on the principles of grass identification down to individual species and also the broader ecological relationships within different grassland communities.

We will visit a variety of habitats and by looking carefully at the detailed structure of the plants, will help you develop skills and confidence in identifying the more common species correctly and recognising the rarer species when you find them.

The content is also appropriate for anyone wishing to contribute to their Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements.

Jonny Stone works as Senior Ecologist for OHES Environmental.

He has wide experience of grass identification and vegetation surveys and has often led this course at Flatford Mill.
