Expert Hour: The Many Ways of Being a Tree
Age Range: All ages (under 16s must be accompanied by an adult)
Introducing the third Gregson Presents…Expert Hour.
This is a series of talks and discussions about different topics, often specific and likely niche.
For our 4th Expert Hour, Clare de Villanueva discusses The Many Ways of Being a Tree: How do trees respond to change, and what part do humans play in the story of trees?
What might trees teach us about navigating change? Explore ways to connect with trees that support your own ways of being, with a focus on ancient trees and woodland habitats.
About Clare:
Clare has been fascinated and comforted by the expansiveness of natural systems all her life; from Scarborough’s sea and sky; to pebbles, rocks and geological time; via watery processes, to trees and woodlands. Clare cares loudly about the natural world and everyone’s right to feel connection with it. She works with organisations such as the National Trust and the Ancient Tree Forum.
