LONGFORD Park will be hosting two autumnal events this weekend.

The Stretford Park will be holding at an Autumn Open Day and Conker Celebration on Sunday October 11.

From 10am-12pm, a free family event by Red Rose Forest will be held which will involve collecting, identifying and planting tree seeds.

There will also be a conker competition, tree bingo and storytelling. The Autumn Open Day will take place at Longford Park Community Allotment/Rylands Kitchen Garden from 1.30-4.30pm.

Visitors can see the gardens, plant bulbs and hear a talk about bee keeping.
