Marston Forest Garden has come a long way since we first helped out there way back in 2020. It's transformed from head high brambles to a well-planned network of shrubs and trees which (once well-established) will form an edible forest.

Today we dug out nettle roots, laid cardboard for weed-suppression, moved mounds of debris to the compost heaps, and broke out the axe to cut sticks down to size for mulching new areas. (Axe use is the best stress buster known to humans.)
