Join a sampling day to collect earthworm specimens as part of the University of Greenwich’s wildlife monitoring initiative.
Come along for a hands-on day of earthworm surveying with fellow nature enthusiasts! You’ll help search for and collect earthworm specimens, contributing valuable data to build a species list for the site. Our survey methods include exploring different microhabitats and hand-sorting soil samples to gather specimens, which will later be identified by trained earthworm recorders. All records will be added to the National Earthworm Recording Scheme, helping to expand our understanding of these important soil creatures. No experience is necessary—just bring your curiosity and a keen eye for wildlife!
