Learn how to ID trees in winter including a gentle walk around the woodlands looking at buds, bark, and tree form.
We will begin with an indoor session over a cup of tea/coffee learning the system before going for a gentle walk around the woodlands by the office and along the Ropewalk, looking at buds, bark and tree form. Then we will finish at the office identifying cuttings using your new skills.
No prior knowledge is required.
Workshop Tutor - Russell Rowley
Russell is a qualified Environmental Forester with a lifelong interest in trees. After becoming frustrated with existing tree identification systems which excluded many via scientific jargon, he developed his own system based on a potato! Since then he has taught hundreds of people a simple method to identify our most common broadleaved trees in Winter.
Severn Gorge Countryside Trust
This workshop is being hosted by the Severn Gorge Countryside Trust, a local charity.
The Trust’s aim is to promote, protect and conserve the living landscape of the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage Site, which has a diverse range of habitats, including wildflower meadows, woodlands and heathlands. But that’s not all! We maintain over 20 kilometres of footpaths, conserve and protect 60 historic structures, run exciting Outdoor Learning and Volunteering Programmes to encourage local people and visitors to engage with the natural environment in a variety of ways.
All proceeds from this workshop will support the work of the Severn Gorge Countryside Trust.

Our Outdoor Learning Programme 2024/2025
Get Creative with Nature!
Our Outdoor Learning Programme for 24/25 is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the environment through creative workshops and walks. Whether it’s letting your creativity flow, encouraging you to enjoy the simple pleasure of spending time outside in nature, or learning a new skill, there is something for everyone!
Engaging with nature has been well demonstrated to have positive effects on both mental and physical wellbeing. We hope that this in turn promotes the desire to protect and preserve the natural environment, for present and future generations.
Be inspired in nature’s classroom!
