Activity description

This will be our final day working in the new Mereway orchard and glade. Mereway Nature Park is a greenspace managed for biodiversity by Richmond Council. We will work to dig out the remaining bramble roots from the new glade/paths before seeding the area. We also want to woodchip the final section of looping path to guide people safely to the site. The new glades will provide habitat diversity in this greenspace, and will be a hotspot for pollinators and people alike.
