The exhibition shows her artistic interpretation of the farmland\, flowers and wildlife found in the North Pennines. Janet’s inspiration comes from her joy of taking extensive walks in the Teesdale area. \nAlison\, who lives and works on a traditional livestock farm in Teesdale\, shares her passion in the exhibition for not only the area in which she lives but also the love of the landscape\, wildlife and domestic farm animals. Alison’s inspiration comes from what she describes as ‘the stunning and varied landscape of the North Pennines’. \nOpen during visitor centre opening hours (daily 10am to 5pm). Not wheelchair accessible. \nFeatured image above\, by Alison Lamb\nImage below by Janet Love \n  URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/exhibition-farming-wildlife-and-landscapes/ LOCATION:Bowlees Visitor Centre\, Newbiggin\, DL12 0XF CATEGORIES:Art,Bowlees Visitor Centre events,Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/20230706_081644.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20230819T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20230820T130000 DTSTAMP:20260405T002716 CREATED:20230601T112039Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230817T095901Z UID:10000433-1692450000-1692536400@northpennines.org.uk SUMMARY:Fellfoot Sounds DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. \nDay\, night and dawn amongst the trees and stones. \nThis relaxed daytime and one night campout is a small environmentally friendly event in a stunning dark skies area where you can listen\, make\, enjoy live performance\, music and workshops.

The aim is to monitor a selection of meadows pre- and post-restoration to see the impacts upon pollinator abundance\, whilst also adding vital data to a countrywide programme run by the BCT. The BeeWalks will be coordinated by a member of the Tees-Swale Farming and Nature Team. \nContact Molly for more information: molly@northpenninesaonb.org.uk.\nPlease sign up using our Better Impact volunteer system  \n  URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/beewalk-training-with-the-bumblebee-conservation-trust-teesdale-pollinator-surveying/ LOCATION:Bowlees Visitor Centre\, Newbiggin\, DL12 0XF CATEGORIES:Bowlees Visitor Centre events,Volunteering ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Red-tailed-bumblebee-on-devils-bit-scabious-Ruth-Starr-Keddle-NPAP.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240525T103000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240525T123000 DTSTAMP:20260405T002716 CREATED:20240117T142348Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240418T123832Z UID:10000328-1716633000-1716640200@northpennines.org.uk SUMMARY:Saturday stroll - a guided walk DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided walk through a historic landscape at a relaxed pace on the last Saturday of each month. \nThe walk starting at Westgate\, on 25 May will begin at 10.30am and finish at approximately 12.30pm.

The aim is to monitor a selection of meadows pre- and post-restoration to see the impacts upon pollinator abundance\, whilst also adding vital data to a countrywide programme run by the BCT. The BeeWalks will be coordinated by a member of the Tees-Swale Farming and Nature Team. \nPlease contact Willaim for more information: william@northpennines.org.uk.\nPlease sign up using our Better Impact volunteer system  \n  URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/beewalk-training-with-the-bumblebee-conservation-trust-teesdale-pollinator-surveying-copy/ LOCATION:Bowlees Visitor Centre\, Newbiggin\, DL12 0XF CATEGORIES:Bowlees Visitor Centre events,Volunteering ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Red-tailed-bumblebee-on-devils-bit-scabious-Ruth-Starr-Keddle-NPAP.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20250628T103000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20250628T143000 DTSTAMP:20260405T002716 CREATED:20250124T120538Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250626T094314Z UID:10001254-1751106600-1751121000@northpennines.org.uk SUMMARY:Saturday stroll - a guided walk DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided walk through a historic landscape at a relaxed pace on the last Saturday of each month\, from 10.30am to approximately 1pm.
