The best possible plants we can have for our bees are native Irish plants. This workshop will show you how to collect seed from native plants and save them successfully for sowing yourself. It is aimed at people who want to collect wildflower seed and use it to provide more food for bees in their garden, school, farm or local area. If you’re trying to create a wildflower meadow, some of the methods covered in this workshop can also be used to increase the diversity of flowering plant species in place of purchasing seed mixes.

The National Biodiversity Data Centre is a national organisation for the collection, collation, management, analysis and dissemination of data on Ireland’s biological diversity. Biodiversity data are a key requirement for understanding our natural surroundings, for tracking change in our environment and for gaining a greater insight on how we benefit from, and impact upon, the ecosystem goods and services provided by biological diversity; a national asset which contributes at least €2.6 billion to the Irish economy each year. The Data Centre was established by the Heritage Council in 2007 and is funded by the Heritage Council and the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht. The Centre is operated under a service level agreement by Compass Informatics Limited, an information and location technologies company focused on applications in natural resources and planning.
