The Walk:
Join ranger Jo for a wander around the beautiful wildflower meadows of Gomms Wood nature reserve, not just a woodland but home to some of the best areas of Chalk Grassland in Wycombe. This habitat, once widespread in the Chilterns, boasts some rare and beautiful wildflower species, including orchids. Come along to see some of these species for yourself, find out what you can do to encourage them if you have a garden, and what Chiltern Rangers are doing to increase the numbers of wildflowers in our nature reserves. Some of the meadows are on steep slopes with some uneven ground.
