Spring Growth
It's amazing how quickly the path borders become overgrown, especially following rain...
We held 12 sessions in May, with volunteers collectively spending 55 hours of their time.
April 2024
Maintaining Byways
There were 10 sessions during April, with volunteers putting in 37 hours, maintaining the byways on our estate.
March 2024
Clearing the Long Path
There were nine gardening sessions during March, incorporating collectively, 46 hours of volunteer time.
Some of the shrubbery beds in the park were tidied. Lawn was edged near the roundabout, to keep the path clear. The dead hedge on the cherry tree patch on the long path, that runs along the side of the estate, was tidied, which generated two large tonne bags of waste, and we are very grateful to Blue Frog, for taking these away for disposal. The final sessions were focused on edging the long path, as it runs towards the roundabout.
