The piece of land we have returned to work on this week forms a little buffer zone between the fun and games of the Recreation Ground in Yarmouth and the designated nature reserves of Rofford Marsh.
We cleared the perimeter ditch of undergrowth to ensure there is good drainage and cleared and raked off much of the summers growth from the meadow area. This was a piece of land rich in wild flowers and buzzing with many insects of course too during the summer and our management this week will hopefully ensure next year it will look just as good.
We took the opportunity to unravel our new banner! Thanks go to The West Wight Landscape Partnership for buying this for us, it will certainly help us spread the message about what we get up to each week. Look out for it popping up near you of a Wednesday morning! Also thanks to Sue for designing the banner, it looks great.
Many thanks to Mark for the editorial and photographs this week.
