Activity description

Join us for a volunteering taster session at our site in the Ulster Folk Museum, Cultra! This introductory session is aimed at people who are new to volunteering with the Tree Nursery and want to give it a try to see what it's like to volunteer with us. You'll join us for a tour of our site and will spend some time completing seasonal Tree Nursery tasks. Here at the Tree Nursery, we are always looking for volunteers to help us deliver our mission in helping Northern Irelands native woodlands. The vital conservation work we carry out would be impossible without you. So, if you like the sound of getting a bit mucky and having fun, all while doing good for the environment then this is the place for you! *Please email tcv-treenursery@tcv.org.uk to book a space.

Meeting place

Meeting point will be at the security kiosk at the entrance of the Ulster Folk Museum, Belfast Road. The site is easily accessible by public transport and there is limited parking on site.
