Tool Maintenance Day!
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 12.2 miles away from your postcode
At TCV Tool Shed Grove Gardens Teddington
Activity description
This is one of two half-day sessions focusing on tool maintenance (cleaning, sharpening, oiling) to give them some TLC after the last few busy hot months. I also need to construct a new wheelbarrow shelf for use in the cargo hold of the new van (which doesn't have nice flat ply housing around the wheels to sit things on/is wider than my previous van). I welcome all ideas for this!! Please contact Brittany directly to register attendance for this session. Please note the tool store does not have running water/electricity. The closest loos are an 8 minute walk to The Anglers Pub (opens 10am).

Plant surveys and thistle clearance
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
About 43.3 miles away from your postcode
At Sundon National Grid (Chalton)
Activity description
We have just started a new long term project at this brilliant little site, to improve biodiversity. As we're in the early stages, our first few months are concentrating on recording what's on site now, and keeping on top of the plant species that would otherwise take over - mainly thistles. So our sessions are a mix of scything, raking, and walking over the site to survey what's there. Something for everyone!
