Plant surveys and thistle clearance
With Bedfordshire Environmental Action Team
About 33.7 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!

Installing a large pergola at Clapham Common Bandstand Beds SW4 9DE
With Biodiversity Action Team (South London)
About 7.2 miles away from your postcode
At Clapham Common Bandstand Beds
Activity description
We return to the Bandstand Beds site, this time to install a large pergola to extend from the catering / storage container to the seating area within the garden. We will be installing a mesh grid on the roof of the pergola to allow for climbers to be grown up to the roof to provide much needed shade in the summer months, as well as a small polycarbonate window to allow light through to the catering area.
