Monaghan's Biodiversity Conference is back again this year following a very successful event being held last year.
This event is a showcase of Monaghan's biodiversity. It's an opportunity to come and hear about local projects and local issues from local speakers and find out how you can get involved in your community.
You will hear about the wonderful wetlands of Monaghan, the rewilding of our towns and villages, our work for pollinators and ongoing projects in Monaghan. A Swift Report' will be launched on the current state of swift populations in the county and there will be opportunities for you to contribute your thoughts and ideas for protecting and enhancing nature in Monaghan.
The event is happening in the Wetlands Centre in Ballybay this Saturday and further details can be found on our website Northern Sound.ie
Monaghan's Biodiversity Officer Patricia McCreesh says the conference offers people in the region a wonderful opportunity to find out more about the great outdoors locally.
