Previous Green Team Tasks (Summer 2002)
|
| Date | NNR/Area | Task | Details |
| 12 May | Sunnyside Farm | Work Day - Join the Green Team at the newly purchased site adjacent to Stoborough and Hartland NNR's. Until recently the site was a working farm, and the long term aim is to restore parts of the farm back to heathland. |
Meet 10 am at EN office, Slepe Farm, Arne Grid Ref: SY 959858 |
| 28 June | Studland Beach |
Volunteers Meeting and Social Evening |
Great fun was had by all - a walk around the dunes and along the beach started the evening, followed by the Volunteers meeting. To round the evening off, a bar-b-que and drinks. |
| 17 July | Stoborough Heath | Work day - Midweek visit to pull up Ragwort! |
Meet - 10 am at the entrance gate Grid Ref: SY 945855 |
| 21 July | Hambledon Hill | Work day - The annual Ragwort clearance. Help reduce the amount of Ragwort - a plant toxic to cattle - on the Hill! There wasn't much of it last year, but don't worry, with all the rain we've been having there is sure to be lots of the yellow peril to remove. |
Meet 10 am at Markstone lay-by east of Child Okeford Grid Ref: ST 838122 |
| 18 August | Sunnyside Farm | Work day - a continuation of the 12 May Task - that means more fence removal and repairs and tidying the farm yard. |
Meet 10 am at Slepe Farm Grid Ref: SY 959858 |
| 15 September | Sandford Heath | Work day - Another newly acquired site, which is intended to be a new NNR. Lots of work for the Green Team though. The site has been neglected for many years. So that means young pine, which is invading the remaining areas of open heath, is in need of the Green Team treatment! |
Meet 10 am - contact English nature Office for details of meeting place |
