Planting Day

February 28, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

We have several hundred small trees onsite which are awaiting planting. They are mainly hedgerow plants, although we have received others. If we have a good turnout it may be possible to plant them all – but it takes quite a lot of effort to plant this many trees, and many hands make light work, so please join us if you can! We are meeting at the Log Circle at 10.00am on Sunday February 28th. Google map can be found below – and the Getting Here page shows where you can park.

There is no obligation to stay all day. Any help is much appreciated – whether it’s half an hour or the whole day – your time helping us maintain the woodland means we can get that bit more done!

Most of the planting will be going in to the top boundary line (above the felled area) above the top track, so if you can’t make it for 10am, we’d be very grateful if you can come along later and help out – even more so, as the early starters might be flagging 🙂

Make sure you bring warm clothes. Tools and gloves will be provided, but if you have any specialist tools that may help, they will be useful. The area we will be digging does have some rocks under the ground which can make digging with a spade awkward! Also, make sure you bring suitable boots as it may be muddy.

We hope we’ll have the capability of making a coffee or two, but may be worth considering bringing some snacks and drinks with you – especially if you’ll be there for any length of time.

Also We will have some firewood stock which will be available to buy onsite if anyone needs any.
