In great weather conditions, 11 of us (including three newcomers) furthered
our indulgence in shrub planting at the wood yesterday. We completed most of
the south-east side and made a start on the southern end of the west side.
We probably have less than 200 donated plants remaining, so we should finish
at the next regular work party on 22nd January (subject to making up the
shortfall in canes and guards). In addition, we made safe a fallen tree that
was resting rather precariously across the eastern path, removed a small
tree that had fallen into the field on the west side, impacted earth on the
south end steps to make them safer, and removed a substantial amount of
litter.
