SUMMARY:Planting Day
DESCRIPTION: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. \nThere 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! \nMost 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 🙂 \nMake 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. \nWe 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. \nAlso We will have some firewood stock which will be available to buy onsite if anyone needs any.

SUMMARY:Blaen Bran Walking Club
DESCRIPTION:Open to everyone. \nA leisurely walk for a couple of hours around the woodland lead by a few of our members. If you’ve never been to the woodland\, this is a great way to learn your way around the woodland and get advice from our regular members and walkers about what there is to do and see\, so you feel more confident when you want to come up on your own. It’s also a great way to meet new friends! \nIt’s a dog friendly walk but be aware that many are off their leads. \nIf its been raining in the last couple of days before the walk make sure you’re equipped for some muddy areas with waterproof walking boots or wellies in case we decide to go off the normal tracks!

SUMMARY:Volunteer day - willow bedding
DESCRIPTION:We are bedding some craft willow trees which in future years could be used for educational visits. \nCraft willow can be used in many ways as can be seen on this website. \nThere are about 100 willows\, and apparently they do not need much digging\, but many hands make light work!! \nWillows like boggy areas\, so if you do want to come and help\, make sure you bring wellies.

SUMMARY:PMT Party
DESCRIPTION:PMT = Preventative Measure Tasks\n–\nThere are many jobs required to be solved approaching winter which are not to do with the wildlife – like to ensure the trail roads survive the cold weather or the drainage of severe rain or snow will not cause problems with surrounding areas. The trail roads are needed throughout the year to allow access for heavy equipment for maintenance and moving trees and debris\, access for fire engines and other emergency services. If they are not maintained correctly\, there will be major problems in getting funding in the future. \nThe tasks required could include :\n– strategic ditch digging to ensure the rain and snow does not damage roads or trails\n– digging up selected trees for replanting (once some tree types are asleep for the winter they have a better chance of growing in a new area)\n– bracken brashing – less chance of this weed growing back if culled regularly. \nTask advantages :\nForestry understanding : 1/5\nForestry skills : 1/5\nExercise level : 1/5\nFun level : 4/5  \nPete
