Ham Pond - Vegetation & reed management
With Richmond Weekday Projects
At Ham Common Pond
Activity description
We will be largely working within Ham Pond completing vegetation management, including: - Continuing annual reed bed management, through the push back of reed growth from vistas, digging out excess reed growth encroaching into the pond, and cutting a section of reed bed. - Coppicing the 4 pollarded willow trees on the island (can only be done when water levels allow us to wade across). If you have a floating board you'd be happy for us to use to move arisings back off the island - please get in touch!). We will provide waders and gloves. If you are of a smaller foot size, I would recommend bringing an extra thick pair of socks as the smallest wader size we have available is a 7. If these tasks are completed, we will look to move to the adjacent Ham Avenues.

Grass Strimming and raking
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
At Great Stukeley Sssi
Activity description
This site is a rare and important grassland habitat so we're helping to manage it for wildlife by keeping nutrient levels low. Strimming the grass off and raking it away from the grassland means nettles and thistles are less likely to thrive, giving more chance for wildflowers to do well.
