We have only two more sessions! Wednesday 24th September is the real deal! Actually helping to seed a wildflower meadow! Meeting at Coleton Fishacre entrance at 2pm. Here are the all of the details I have:
Brixham WI Life on the Edge -
Wednesday 24th September - 2 until 4.30pm
- The ground at Coleton Fishacre is being prepared (rotavated)that morning. It's a relatively small site, but will have high impact as it's by the vehicle entrance drive.
- Our afternoon: we will be raking the rotavated ground, learning how to seed effectively on a large scale, and doing the seeding. It is expected that this could take anything from 45mins to 2 hours!
- If the job is done early, we may go for a short walk. We MAY be allowed in or through the Coleton Gardens without paying but this can't yet be guaranteed. that. (If not, there is another walk planned. It's not an easy walk!)
- If we are allowed, we'll go for coffee at the café on site, though people will need to buy their own coffee in this case. Stuart has emailed the National Trust team and asked for clarity on these questions, but not heard back yet.
- We may have to pay for parking; Stuart still doesn’t have an answer to this either.
- Attendees should meet outside reception of Coleton Fishacre just before 2pm and they should bring work clothes/footwear. Or at least those they don’t mind getting dirty. Bear in mind choosing footwear that is suitable for a walk also would really help.
- If the weather is awful, this event will be cancelled the day before!
