Woodland Volunteers have been busy throughout the Summer months working across the 8 Lancashire County Council woodland sites, which PROSPECTS manages on the Council’s behalf.
The majority of the work has been Balsam pulling, but there has also been non-native tree thinning, litter picking and meadow management using scythes!
As the nights draw in and the days get colder and wet the Woodland Volunteers will be undertaking winter task in the woods. This will include felling Ash Dieback effected trees, cutting back greenery encroaching on pathways, litter picking, coppicing and hedge laying.
Hyndburn’s Woodlands will also be delivering an Introduction to Green Woodwork day, spoon carving day and working with the Green Team to deliver seasonal tree identification walks.
