Green Angels Fort Burgoyne

Green Angels is an exciting training opportunity with an environmental focus, giving you the chance to learn new skills, change your future prospects and make a difference in your community.

Our FREE courses cover subjects such as wildlife conservation, landscaping, environmental education, horticulture and more. Training programmes usually last around six weeks, with regular sessions that combine learning with hands-on experience.

UPCOMING COURSES

We started Green Angels at Fort Burgoyne in 2019 with courses in Environmental Education and Habitat Creation and Management, and since then have continued delivery, even through the pandemic, when we ran online courses in Food Growing and Wild Wellbeing.  We love working at Fort Burgoyne – it is such an exciting space!  Courses planned for 2024 include the following:

  • Introduction to local botany – May/June 2024 – one day course
  • Introduction to Bee Keeping – June/July 2024 – six sessions
  • Habitat Management – October 2024 – three sessions
  • Introduction to Scything – September 2024 – one day course
