Sign the Glyphosate petition! Glyphosate is a weedkiller. It’s linked to cancer, birth defects, biodiversity loss and water pollution. Basically it poisons the soil and water, it kills insects and it makes humans seriously ill (if not terminally). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), part of the World Health Organization (WHO), has classified glyphosate as "probably carcinogenic to humans". Glyphosate is also known to harm beneficial insects, aquatic life, and soil health. Cornwall Council stopped using it in 2013, but are now planning to reintroduce it to 'control' wild plants and invasive species in public spaces and byways. Why bring it back? The council says: 1. it’s costing more to adopt alternatives - including paying people to do the work (that’s jobs) 2. by not keeping on top of wild plants near roads, using alternatives available (which are effective if implemented properly), it’s causing damage to kerbs etc

🌧️🐾 **COMMUNITY DOG‑POO CLEAN‑UP TODAY** 🐾🌧️
We’re heading out for a quick neighbourhood clean‑up and you’re welcome to join us!
It’s **windy with showers**, so we’re keeping it **short and safe**:
- Wear **waterproofs and sturdy shoes**
- Bring **gloves** (we’ll have spares)
- Dog‑poo bags provided
- Stick to **paths and pavements** — no slippery banks today
- All waste goes in **dog bins or general waste bins**
- Hand sanitiser available at the end
This is a simple way to keep our streets clean, protect wildlife, and look after our bay. Even 20–30 minutes makes a difference.
If you see us out and about, give us a wave!

The Budding Nature team have just about survived the soggy bleakness of our recent Cornish winter, and have been plunged head-first into the 2026 season. We're still a bit bleary-eyed and wobbly but it's all systems go! While important details such as dates, locations, subjects are still being ironed out for many things, we are able to share details of FREE upcoming Connecting Communities events. These are: Two further Nature Weekends - May 15/16 (Fri/Sat) for Penzance (Treneere, WAC building), and June 13/14 (Sat/Sun) for Sancreed (Sancreed Village Hall). Five workshops - see attached for details. If you would like to know more and/or are keen to attend any of the workshops, please pop us an email: As workshop spaces are limited, initial priority will be given to those who are part of the three target communities, after which, we will open them up to the wider public.
