Bogland: Past, Present, Future (Fri 13 Feb)
Hidden behind our farmhouses and thatched cottages, you will find the last remaining piece of raised bogland at the Folk Park. Join our curator to hear how these landscapes provided heat and a way of life for Irish families throughout history. You will also meet teams from Ulster Wildlife and The Conservation Volunteers to learn how they are restoring this land to help it store carbon and protect the environment. Come along, put on your wellies and be prepared to get stuck in.
