    Oak Avenue Nature Reserve - Meadow & pathway management

    With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)

    At Oak Avenue Local Nature Reserve

    Activity description

    We will be working in Oak Avenue Nature Reserve to manage the meadows and pathways. The site is managed for biodiversity by LBRuT. We will look to maintain pathways and push back bramble suckering off meadow edges to maintain the grassland space. We will also complete bracken & horsetail removal in the meadows. Bracken fern is the UK's most common fern. It grows in dense stands in grasslands and dies off during summer creating a fire risk. Bracken is often removed from grassland sites to ensure it doesn't overpower other species/encroach on meadows. Please wear long-sleeves to this event as bracken sap/spores can irritate skin, and we will be clearing prickly seedlings (bramble, hawthorn, blackthorn) so let's reduce scratch risk!
