We've done it! Thank you so much for helping us to extend our nature reserve.
Market Weston Fen is a very special place for wildlife. Being one of the finest fragments of valley fen in East Anglia, the reserve is home to over 250 different flowering plants, 20 species of butterfly, and 200 types of moth. You can also see numerous dragonfly on the wing through summer with swallows darting and wheeling around the cattle into autumn. Look out for fox on frosty winter mornings.
It is an internationally important wildlife site designated both a UK Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a European Special Area of Conservation (SAC).
Thanks to your support, we have been able to buy a further 78 acres to expand Market Weston Fen into a 178-acre nature reserve.
