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 winter months. For anyone organisationally inclined, I also need to sort through and organise sections of the tool store (bags of old waterproofs, grouping boxes of screws/nails, etc) and tidy up some of the vegetation on site.

Twickenham Rough - Vegetation management
With Richmond Weekday Projects
About 12.9 miles away from your postcode
At Twickenham Rough
Activity description
We will be working to manage vegetation in the newly cleared glade and will start opening up undergrowth in the adjacent woodland to make way for a future nature walk. Twickenham Rough is a greenspace managed for biodiversity by Richmond Council. We will work to remove bramble roots from the new glade to reduce future scrub encroachment. The new glades will provide habitat diversity in this greenspace, and will be a hotspot for pollinators and people alike. Our work in the woodland will involve removing dominant species, widening a desire line into a pathway suitable for a future woodland nature walk. We will also look to thin out undercanopy growth to improve sightlines to ensure the safety of greenspace users.
