Are you handy with a hedge? 13 Nov 2024 Help NRN with their hedge-planting sessions this winter

Eynsham’s local Nature Recovery Network and Long Mead Foundation are currently undertaking a marathon of hedge-planting sessions to restore 60 acres along the river below Swinford Lock.

This ambitious but important project will greatly enhance our local countryside – and they’d like some help to make it happen.

Hedge-planting sessions are scheduled for Sunday 1 December and Sunday 12 January, from 10am until 3pm. Volunteers will meet at Long Mead barn at 10am and are advised to bring a picnic lunch and a thermos for sustenance.

There is no requirement to stay for the whole session; any time you can give to help during the session will be appreciated.

Those interested in attending can RSVP via this link for the December session:Event - A Hedge in Time - a kilometre of 'linear forest to plant'! and this link for the January session: Event - Meet the new year with a bit of hedge-planting!
