North Curry Wildlife Group has joined forces with Climate Action Athelney to form the North Curry Environment Group. A website and social media sites are being set up and links will be posted here in due course.
The main focus of this site is the wildlife of the Community Woodland at North Curry'sWhite Street Sports Ground, but we aim to include other areas around the village too (see the Places section). The Projects section shows what we are doing to help wildlife in North Curry, while the Gardening section gives advice on how to help wildlife in our own gardens. Our Species pages include information about some of the plants and wildlife to be found at the Community Woodland.
