MCT Activities, July & August 2019

We have been doing a lot of selective removal fo plants like Ground Elder, Docks and Ragwort recently, the last two to prevent too many seeds being dispersed.  The wetter periods earlier mean everything has been growing rapidly, so we have been doing  much mowing and strimming to keep paths clear.  We were  pleased to see our trial poppy patch flowering in July.  Second photo shows Chloe, one of our junior DoE volunteers, trimming vegetation growing around new trees/shrubs we are establishing on part of the site.
