We will be meeting at 10.00 a.m. at the entrance in Woodland Way and there are a number of tasks scheduled for the day which will be prioritised on the day:
Sythe and clear vegetation from around the whips planted in the first coppiced area.
Using old Ash logs with bark still on create several stages of Beetle Pyramids in the recently coppiced areas and where the decayed Cherry was felled along the top path.
Replace the bench located mid way along the top path fence line which has rotted.
Assess the possibility of constructing a covered area along the top path near the power point.
FoF will be providing all the necessary tools for the above tasks but please would you bring your own gloves and tools (shears and loppers) if you have them. Please would you also bring your own wipes and hand gel as well as your own refreshments. Please also remember to wear long trousers/jeans to avoid getting bitten by ticks but FoF’s First Aid kit does contain tick removers if needed.
Please would you let Roger Crabb know if you'll be able to make the work day (rjcrabb@talktalk.net) – many thanks.
