Due to snow, planting was cancelled a couple of times and 500 heathers (Calluna Vulgaris) were fleeced over, so double handling!!

They were eventually planted on the banks of the hill below an existing heather drift, and some on a slope as you go towards the sandpit (now sadly a broken glass area). Could those responsible please be considerate of dogs and wildlife, as well as children, and do not smash bottles?

Thanks to everyone who helped and to GAVO for funding it.

We have lots of other things going on as well. Please message or email Susy if you have availability and are interested in volunteering with us at info@sirhowyhillwoodlands.co.uk.
