Nicola and Stephanie joined the lovely Jill and crew from Woolston Station Garden group maintaining this much loved little corner of beauty and nature. We spent the session weeding the beds under the guidance of Patricia our plant guru. Wonderful to see signs of Spring everywhere as these pockets of nature are so important in urban areas.

What a fantastic session joining Mac and other volunteers at Millers Pond Nature Reserve/ Sholing Valleys Study Centre to plant trees around this vital green space allowing nature to thrive. Nicola, Leszek, Ashleigh and Stephanie had great fun planting a lovely variety of trees Dog Wood, Hazel, Hawthorn and more. We then dug up a few other saplings which had grown up in the wrong place although a few were rather reluctant to come out of the ground. Leszek and Nicola also took part in the afternoon litter pick around the reserve. We will return to see how the new saplings are getting on later in the year.

A wonderful, warm and sunny session with the fabulous Jill and volunteers at Woolston Station Garden. Chris, Steph and Mel were weeding and hoeing the bed along with Sophie and Nicola two local volunteers under the guidance of Patricia. Nicola was diligently sifting the homemade compost ready for us to scatter over the bed. Chris had a lovely last task to trim the buddleia as he does enjoy cutting back. A great hours work and we will be back later this month for another session.
