Long Mead's Thames Valley Wildflower Meadow Restoration Project
The Thames Valley Wildflower Meadow Restoration Project (TVWMRP) aims to increase the UK’s four square miles of floodplain hay meadow to support the creation of a nature recovery network for Oxfordshire by working with neighbouring farmers and landowners to restore and recreate floodplain meadows along the Thames, where much of the remaining habitat lies in designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Local Wildlife Sites.

This workshop will be held at Long Mead barn and in our species-rich floodplain hay meadow. Please travel by foot, bus or bike if you can. The S1 Bus stops at the Talbot Inn, just outside our gate. We are between the Swinford Toll Bridge and the Talbot Inn (opposite the pub) recogniseable by the row of rusty birds on the gate and a thatch barn in the orchard.
If you need to travel by car please use the Eynsham Sports Pavillion car park (1 Oxford Rd, Eynsham, Witney OX29 4HG). It is marked with a green pointer on the map. It is 7 minutes walk from us.
