Good to Grow

Today’s task for our small group of Thursday volunteers was to finish off the work on the orchid bank. On Monday a further section of brambles had been cleared with the brushcutter, so that was duly raked up and cleared away. Extending the cut area, we hope will allow the orchids to spread. Another small area was brushcut today, to use as a fire site, while Matt took down some old willow trees with the chainsaw, so there was plenty to burn!
The area looks totally different now, so we just need some spring warmth and hopefully the Early Purple Orchids along with other flora are good to go!
Thank you to everyone who helped today, it was a cold start to the day but everyone left with a warm glow!
