It has been difficult to plan events this year, due to the impact of Covid19. As events are subject to change, they will be advertised on the Home page for now.
Upcoming events include regular meetings, field trips, Public Guided walks, conservation activities and shows (including Non-NOSSA events but of interest).
Field Trips
Bookings are essential for all field trips.
Field trips are usually held on the Saturday following the General Meeting.
Locations of field trips are subject to change due to the seasonal nature of orchid flowering times.
