Sunday 14th October 2018 – Devon Gardens, St Martin – 10:30-13.00
From Jersey Conservation Volunteers
The details Devon Gardens is a public garden in Gorey that is home to several important Jersey species. The walls provide great habitat for wall lizards and wild strawberry but are becoming overgrown with vegetation, threatening the habitat so we will be working to remove areas of dense ivy.
