We will be meeting at 10.00 a.m. at the entrance in Woodland Way and the tasks for the day will be to brushcut and rake the Butterfly Glade, cut back the vegetation encroaching the Juniper compounds in Sherwood Glade and the other compounds located nearby and start work on the next area to be coppiced. A stake in one of the Sherwood Glade Juniper compounds also needs to be sharpened and repositioned.
As usual 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 although FoF’s First Aid kit does contain tick removers if needed.
Please would you let me know if you'll be able to make the work day (chrispm_parker@hotmail.co.uk) – many thanks.
