Pulling Goats Rue at Green Lane Reserve 15:00 - 17:00
Sunday 23rd June
Parking: There is some on street parking on Laxton Road (or in many of the other side streets nearby).
Where: We will meet in the reserve (published co-ordinates), access to the reserve is from Laxton Road.
What: Goats Rue is an invasive plant which quickly out competes other species. We pull Goats Rue annually on the reserve to prevent it spreading. Having successfully done this last year we have seen an overall decline in plant numbers. This year we aim to start pulling early as the new plants emerge with the hope of having a second pull later on in the year.
How: The Countryside Ranger will be there providing guidance and gloves, please bring your own if you prefer.
Health and Safety: The session and will be covered by council insurance as long as you are working under the Countryside Ranger's instruction. They will introduce the session and do the health and safety bit prior to work commencing. Children will need supervision and pets kept under control.
