Pulling Ragwort at Gosbecks Archaeological Park
With North Essex Biodiversity Action Team (Midweek)

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.
