Oak Avenue Nature Reserve - Scrub management
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
About 14.4 miles away from your postcode
At Oak Avenue Local Nature Reserve
Activity description
We will be working in Oak Avenue Nature Reserve to manage the scrub encroachment on pathways and meadows. The site is managed for biodiversity by Richmond Council. We will look to 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!

Grassland is a priority habitat in this greenspace as grass snakes and slow worms rely on open habitat to bask. Please wear long-sleeves to this event as we will be clearing prickly seedlings (bramble, hawthorn, blackthorn) so let's reduce scratch risk!
