Thanks to our Volunteers

Tuesday, June 29th 2010

There were 10 volunteers here today and they completed a variety of tasks in the brilliant sunshine. A huge amount of timber from the old boardwalk was taken to our store and de-nailed for us to re-use during the winter to make more boardwalks! As well as this some dead trees were taken out and some pruning along overgrown paths was done.

Steps to the Woodland Walk

Colin worked on these steps that go up to the woodland walk. They were all overgrown. Now they have been cleared and topped with stone and gravel from the beck. A huge improvement!

Ann re-damming part of the beck

Next we worked on re-damming part of the beck which had been slightly washed out. Ann is seen here plodging about in the water. What better way to spend a Tuesday afternoon helping at Foxglove! Many thanks to everyone who comes and gives their time for us. It is much appreciated.
