Showcase your snapping skills with our Celebrate Nature photography competition!

To mark five years of the Nature Recovery Network, we're calling out for nature themed entries focusing on celebrating our local environment, the intrinsic value of our natural world and what it brings us. From the smallest of flowers in our back gardens and green havens, to creatures and natural networks in the wild, we're looking forward to receiving your submissions! 

There will be three age categories, with one winner plus one runner up in each category:

• Under 11s - £30 prize
• 11-17 years old - £50 prize
• Adults 18+ - £100 prize

No need for an SLR camera, images may be shot on a smartphone, but need to be submitted as at min 5mb - max 10mb 300ppi.

Submit your artwork by Friday 6th June 2025 to alice@millstreetarts.co.uk

Winners will be announced and artwork displayed at our Big Midsummer Meadow Nature Celebration event on Saturday 21st June 2025

Join us all on Mondays or Wednesdays as we sow, pot on and propagate our wildflower seedlings, as well as prepare for Eynsham Nature Recovery Network's upcoming events such as hedge planting and mulching.

You may find yourself...transposing tiny seedlings with care, recording the conditions they have been grown in for our innovative wildplant propagation data collection project, cutting willow whips by the Thames or shovelling woodchip for mulching, amongst other activities!

Everyone is welcome to this friendly group where we celebrate the mental health benefits of spending time outdoors and working together. There are tasks available for all abilities and you do not need to be physically fit to join in. Cake is often involved!
