At last we can plant the spiral pathway!

This week has seen developments.  On Wednesday a new fence was erected around the conservation area - thanks to Andrew and Roger for arranging the purchase of materials and putting it up. Funding for the fence has been given by a local charity and our District Councillor, David Lausen. Roger also cut the grass again ready for the tree-planting.  Today Kenton and I marked out the spiral maze with 60 bamboo canes - ready for volunteers to gather tomorrow to plant 100 native trees and shrubs, including whitebeam, rowan, hazel and holly.  The weather forecast is windy and showery, so I hope we do not get too cold and wet.
