Histon & Impington BioBlitz

Histon & Impington Green Spaces and Histon & Impington Community Orchard have joined forces for an all day nature extravaganza – Histon & Impington BioBlitz 2026.

We will be discovering the wildlife and plants in some of our woods and meadows including Histon Wood, the Croft Close Nature Reserve, Long Meadow, the Manor Park field and Community Orchard.

What is on, where and when?

Nature sets the timetable! From dawn (almost) to dusk local experts will be hunting for animals and plants, and anyone – young or old – can join them. Just drop in, no need to book.

There will be a wide range of stalls with a nature theme based at the Community Orchard in the morning. Our BioBlitz “hub” at St Audrey’s Close Community Centre will also have a range of nature stalls plus a totaliser where you can see just how much has been identified as the day progresses.

We have a full programme of TIMED ACTIVITIES that start from either the Community Orchard or St Audrey’s Close Community Centre – see website for timetable.

St Audrey’s Close Community Centre will be the BioBlitz ”hub” open from 10:30-16:30. During the morning there will be a second hub in the Community Orchard open from 8am. (See also the separately advertised Orchard Breakfast, serving 10:30-12:00). There will be a nature puzzle trail between the two hubs.
