Today we were able to carry out a number of maintenance tasks that will make the site easier to use for visitors during the year to come. We thinned out Ash tress, by repotting seedlings which we can use on other sites, and coppicing larger ones that we will allow greater variety in time. Litter and flytipping was removed which included a suitcase and a dressing table mirror. A fallen tree was removed. Several habitats were created which we found time consuming as we wanted to create good examples. Some of the vigorous growing plants were checked to allow better access during the summer months. We also welcomed two other visitors who are keen to showcase our work, a photographer and local radio reporter.
Today we worked with 19 volunteers, including 3 other European nationalities and 2 new volunteers.
