On Sunday 13th April we started our grassland maintenance activity for this year. Six volunteers were present so we got the scythes out and made a start on the welcome area grass just inside the entrance near the tool store.
The grass here is getting quite long and tussocky and needs a good trim.
Looking to the right of the entrance along the path towards post 2 you can see that the grass to the right hand side of the path is also growing longer and could do with being trimmed, but ...
... with these bluebells, along with primroses and cowslips, growing in it, we will have to wait a while before doing that.
Eric, Erika, Peter and Aidan scythed away the grass...
... Chris found some material beside the stream bed that needed to be cleared, and I dumped the cut grass and took some photos.
After a good mornings work we had cut most of the grass in the welcome area and look forward to doing it again soon!
