The last of the Barclays Bank sponsored work parties took place at Ryton Wood Meadows on Saturday 17th May 2008.
Blisters and broken trowels were the order of the day as over 100 Devilsbit Scabious plants were planted in the meadow and also Dog Violets under the newly planted hedge lines. Butterflies on the site should appreciate the extra nectar sources that these plants provide.
A big thank you must go to Barclays Bank and the volunteers for their support. |
