Summer is over and we are back with the 2024 LIFE medCLIFFS field trips! We happily remind you that these field trips are free and exclusively addressed to the registered LIFE medCLIFFS Volunteers. The fifth field trip of this year will be on Saturday, 28th September, and we will focus on the allochthonous and invasive flora growing in Begur, particularly along the coast of Sa Riera. The meeting point will be in front of the same beach at the bar Sa Proa at 11h. Any changes or further details will be notified through the Telegram group, Volunteers' Network LIFE medCLIFFS....

The first field trip of 2025 is here! This time, we will walk and follow a more ethnobotanical route at Cala Murtra, Roses. During the course, we will observe the autochthonous flora of the Myrtle Thicket (habitat 32.218). This is another typical Mediterranean habitat, close to HIC 1240, where we will also keep an eye on the allochthonous and invasive plants that affect and threaten the local flora. There will also be time to explain and provide more information about the LIFE medCLIFFS project, and check how to make observations. This is also a good time to ask and solve...

On Saturday, April 5th we will return to L'Escala, but this time we will focus on a lower track closer to the sea. The main goal of this trip will be to see the only observation of Fallopia baldschuanica of the project. This will be a great occasion to observe the rarest plant monitored by the LIFE medCLIFFS. We encourage you to come and see this uncommon plant in the project area. Maybe after Saturday, you will find it again in your transect and you missed it before. Besides the Fallopia baldschuanica we will keep an eye on the cracks and...

Start of the module "Flora invasora i alternatives sostenibles en jardineria" (invasive flora and sustainable alternatives in gardening) brought by Flora Catalana. This module is designed for those interested in botany, horticulture and gardening. It is a product derived from the LIFE medCLIFFS project which promotes a more sustainable way of gardening free of invasive plant species. It serves as an introduction to the most common species in our territory, the current trends and the alternatives provided as more responsible with the ecosystem. This module will be online and streaming in Catalan. It is divided into 3 videoconferences of 2h...

On Saturday, 3rd May we will meet in Platja d'Aro to follow the C02 and C03 transects from Cala Del Paller to Cala de ses Torretes (Sant Antoni de Calonge). We will keep looking and discovering the local flora but, on this trip, we will tackle the doubts the volunteers who adopted this transect have. We want to remind the new volunteers, and the veteran ones too, that in case of doubt or if questions arise, they should join these sessions and use them to solve any queries or worries related to the project.   As in previous trips, the...
