Come and plant on the 10th December
Lambourn Environmental Group (LEG) will be planting 360 whips as hedging on Bockhampton Meadow.
This is another occasion when we hope the community will show their support as they did for the planting on Sheepdrove Field in January.
Please come around 9am with a spade or trowel or bulb planter.
Depending on the numbers who turn up we hope to be finished by lunchtime.
Come to the far Eastern end of Bockhampton Road, beyond the surgery and enter the meadow via the footpath. The LEG banner will be on display to guide you to the right place.
Fingers crossed for a lovely dry morning with nice rain that night but… if the weather is uncertain please ring Adrian Neal on 07919555744 if you want to confirm that planting is going ahead.
Hope you can join us to work up an appetite with family and friends!
Best wishes,
Penny Brewer
ps Thanks to a band of resolute planters, 18 trees were in the ground in a record one hour last Saturday! Brilliant work helping the climate.
Thank you for the post.
Unfortunately the planting is postponed due to excessive ground frost. We will re-advertise once there is a weather forecast predicting a length of warmer weather. Tiny trees will not do well planted into frozen ground.
