Meet by the Fish Pass at DiglisJoin us for a riverside ramble, picking some fresh elderflowers and then make your own elderflower cordial! Next, enjoy a nature talk on the restoration and development of Chapter Meadows. Finally, bring some food for a picnic in the meadow and enjoy nature in the company of fellow green supporters!
Making the cordial
Making elderflower cordial is easy and is the pure taste of summer!
Elderflowers start to emerge towards the end of May and early June. Flowers can be simply snipped off and prepared for steeping in sugar syrup, which will be supplied. Either lemon or ginger can flavour the cordial, but full instructions will be given. PLEASE BRING A CLEAN CONTAINER FOR THE CORDIAL TO TAKE HOME! (Ideally about 1 litre)

Chapter Meadow nature talk and picnic
What's more summery than a picnic by the river in an emerging nature reserve? We have permission to picnic in the meadow, where we will have a short talk on its restoration.
Please book your tickets in advance so we know how much sugar syrup to bring. Numbers are limited.
Dogs on leads are welcome.
There are no nearby toilets. There is a doughnut shop on the industrial estate off Bromyard Road. There are toilets on Diglis Island where there is a cafe (if open).
Accessibility:
Unfortunately, this is not an accessible event due to a lack of disabled parking, toilets and some uneven ground.
Getting there and securing your bikes:
There are railings at Diglis fish pass to secure your bike to.

There is no vehicular access to the Fish Pass. Parking anywhere near the Fish Pass or Chapter Meadow is difficult and involves a walk. Some spaces on Weir Lane, Bromwich Road and Diglis Dock Road.
