Wed 5th July 2023 - Stone Farm, Blackwater. GG # 941.

 Terry's Photographs.













Geoff's Editorial.

Its very much "pulling the pesky plant season" now for Green Gym. Today we met at Stone Farm in Blackwater Hollow to tackle more invasive Himalayan balsam. As usual we had to overcome nettles and brambles to get at the large area of very tall balsam. By working from several different access points we managed to meet up in the middle having cleared most of the plants on the way. After yesterdays heavy rain the ground was soft so pulling up the roots was relatively easy.

There were less of us today but it was a bright breezy day so pleasant enough for working.

Next week looks like more of the same but working from the cricket ground. Check on Tuesday.


Many thanks to Geoff for the editorial and to Terry for the photographs 👍
