Conservation Task
September 12 @ 10:00 am – 12:30 pm
Organiser: Adrian Palmer
Meeting Point: Footpath just upstream from Milford Bridge opposite the avenue of bamboo.
Task: Clear invasive bamboo on the banks of the Danestream
If there are any volunteers who did not respond to email, but can attend this task we are meeting at 10am on the footpath just upstream from Milford Bridge opposite the avenue of bamboo. Please bring a smile as you enjoy two hours in late summer sunshine, protective gloves and footwear and of course fluids
This event is subject to reasonable weather. Reminders will be sent 7 to 10 days before each session to those who have expressed an interest. If you would like to join the list please fill in our contact form.
Tasks are generally planned with the parish council, and wherever possible have a conservation theme. Most tasks are conservation management or maintenance and vary from lighter clearance work e.g. footpaths, bramble, rhododendron and hazel coppice, to heavier work like drainage, revetment or footpaths. Occasionally we do get opportunities to enhance or even create habitat for flora and fauna.
Volunteers should wear gloves and sturdy footwear, safety glasses and long trousers recommended. Bring waterproofs, sunscreen and insect repellent as appropriate and bring your own water/refreshments.
