1st December 2024 : 11:00 - 15:00
Come along to our Winter Fayre at Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park. Make and decorate your own wreath, have fun with our winter wildlife trails, try your luck at our tombola, grab a gift, chat with our volunteers, and enjoy a hot drink and our special BBQ. The 12 days of winter starts with us! Let's step into the winter season together.
Weave a winter wreath using willow cut from the park, then add a range of decorative natural materials and gathered greenery. Have fun and boost your knowledge with wintery quiz and younger children’s trail. At completion, collect your prize from one of our staff members. Enjoy winter warmer refreshments, BBQ and sweet treats. Try your luck at the winter Tombola, meet the Friends of the Ecology Park and grab a book from our book sale stall.
Free entry and free activities with no booking required. Suitable for all ages from child to adult but all children must be accompanied by an adult.
