AFTERNOON Tree Planting at Eyreton Wood, Crosby at 2.30 p.m. on Sunday, 26th April 2015
Tree Planting at Glen Chass, near Port St. Mary at 11.00 a.m. on Sunday, 19th April 2015
We have been asked to plant a mixture of 200 trees across a hillside at Glen Chass, near Port St. Mary. Although the hillside is fairly steep, paths have been strimmed for the planting, so the footing will be O.K. The mixture of trees will give blossom, berries and Autumn colour and provide a wonderful habitat for wildlife in future years.
Our planting down the north this week went very well. The rain radar forecast was miserable; prolonged steady rain. And driving north – to our most northerly planting yet – I was met with four foot wide rivers of rainwater rushing down every hill.
