Woodland Work-In in Lordship Rec
Sunday 31st May
2pm – 4pm @ the Woodland by Downhills Park Rd
Please come in your millions with wheelbarrows, buckets, shovels and secateurs!!!!
The Friends are holding another work-in to add more woodchip to the ‘middle’ path through the woods. This should complete all the paths and so we won’t need to do it again for another year. We also need to cut back the dense dogwood bushes to open up sightlines.
We’re hoping that many members and others will come along and help. Please, if you can, bring spades/wheelbarrows/buckets/gloves/secateurs etc.
All welcome!
