    Wednesday Practical Conservation Workdays

    With Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park Conservation Volunteers

    At Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park

    Activity description

    Join our regular Wednesday conservation workdays at the Ecology Park and help the wardens carry out vital management work in the park's different habitats - marsh, meadow, lakes, ponds, shingle beach and woodland. You can just turn up on a Wednesday and don't need to book ahead but, the first time you volunteer, we will ask you to fill out a TCV Volunteer Welfare Form (or we can email this to you in advance if you prefer). You will be working as part of a volunteer team with the park wardens, carrying out tasks such as pond clearing, reed cutting, meadow cutting, coppicing (cutting smaller tree stems), digging and weeding.

    Come and join us at this establishing orchard site where we will be carrying out the end of season annual grassland vegetation cut and clear.
