April Workdays
in Simon's Wood
The woodchipper was over at Simon’s Wood where we were continuing thinning out the regenerated Birch and Scots Pine saplings from the Plantation area and the woodchipper creates an alternative habitat for our forest friends.
The woodchip pile in time will provide accommodation for some invertebrates and also act as a host to mushroom and fungi.
March Workdays
Workdays this month took place in Simon's Wood. This entailed planting Hazel in an area previously covered in invasive rhododendron and coppicing Sweet Chestnut to encourage new growth as well as installing protective fencing to keep any nibbling deer away.
The second workday had a variety of tasks including replacing damaged uprights in the car park fencing ahead of cross rails to be installed at a later date.
