Oak Avenue Nature Reserve - Scrub management
With Richmond Weekday Projects
About 13.4 miles away from your postcode
At Oak Avenue Local Nature Reserve
Activity description
We will be working to remove bracken stands, tree suckers and brambles that are encroaching on the meadow at Oak Avenue Nature Reserve. The meadows are managed for biodiversity by LBRuT. 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!
