Hear from scientists from the University of Liverpool about the wonders of our natural world - from poisonous and powerful plants to our beloved pets. Suitable for all the family (grown ups too!) Take part in our interactive activities and creative crafts and be inspired by the world around us.

Try your hand at a brand new trail - the Poison Trail - exploring some of the more sinister plants Ness has to offer....can you find them all?
The Poison Trail comes with a map and info booklet, including space for rubbings, and costs £1.
