We returned to the moor side for the first time this year and to continue the control of bracken and restoration of the moor vegetation. This was carried out using our hand tools of scythes and sickles and then raking off the cut bracken. The group concentrated on the areas that we have cut previously and along the pathways. The work is appearing to have a positive effect on the vegetation and we will return again next month.
The weather was good for this visit and there was not the plague of midges that we encountered for the first visit last year.
Today we worked with 10 volunteers.
