St Nicholas Fields

Welcome to St Nicholas Fields

Friends of St Nicholas Fields is York’s leading organisation promoting sustainable living. We started by transforming a former landfill site into a thriving St Nicholas Fields Local Nature Reserve. We continue to manage it, with the help of many great volunteers, for the benefit of both wildlife and our visitors. We are based at York Environment Centre located on the edge of the Reserve, which was one of the first community buildings in the UK to combine many green features.

From this base, we provide inspiration, advice, practical examples and services to enable people in York and beyond to move towards a sustainable future. Our projects include a (near)zero carbon emissions kerbside recycling collection, Sustainable City Education Programme, home composting advice network of York Rotters, Green Away Days and a programme of events. The Centre is available for booking for meetings, seminars and other events. Please follow the links on the left to find out more about our activities and the nature reserve. We hope you will visit St Nicholas Fields soon.
