The Friends of St Peter’s are participating in Great Big Green Week again with a fabulous Nature Hunt through our historic cemetery on Rectory Lane, 10am-1pm. Come and discover the hidden life of bees, bugs, newts and hedgehogs – it’s teeming with life! Children can collect little natural treasures as they go around and visit the nature-themed craft tent. Home-made refreshments on sale. Free event – donations welcome to support the cemetery maintenance. 

This event is also taking place as part of Love Your Burial Ground Week, a UK-wide celebration of wildlife in churchyards and chapel yards, which is organised by the conservation charity Caring for God’s Acre in partnership with the Church of England, the Church in Wales and A Rocha UK. It’s wonderful that the Friends of St Peter’s are organising this event to include Berkhamsted in this lovely initiative.
