It's spring! Join us for a guided walk at Scott Conservation Park to explore and observe some of the orchids common to the area.

Learn the basics of orchid identification, what to look for and how to use citizen science platforms like iNaturalist to upload your observations and learn about what you see. We will wander along the designated walking trail and stop to chat as we go.

We will have some identification sheets available on the day, or feel free to bring your own books/resources if you have any.

Scott Conservation Park is a small park near Ashbourne and Currency Creek, characterised as low woodland vegetation with Brown Stringybark, Cup Gum and Peppermint Box habitat.

Meet at the carpark/gate on Gould Road, towards the Deep Creek Road end of Gould Road. We will have the Second Nature sign out on the day.
