Encouraging families to get out and enjoy the fresh autumn air, Westonbirt Arboretum will be taking part in the national Forest Discovery Day this September.

On Sunday 30 September 2012, Westonbirt Arboretum will be joining Forestry Commission sites across the country for a nationwide celebration of Forest Discovery Day.

Taking place at the Gloucestershire attraction from 10am to 3pm, families visiting Westonbirt will be able to take part in a range of free activities to celebrate the woodlands in all their early autumnal glory.

Organisers promise that visitors can experience seed planting and seed crafts, take a special trail around the Old Arboretum, have a tour Westonbirt’s new Propagation Unit and discover how the next generation of the aboretum’s trees and shrubs are grown as part of the scheduled activities.
