Wildlife and meadow habitat management training

Wildlife and meadow habitat management training sessions for our valued volunteers, Alex and David. The sessions were facilitated by Cumbria Wildlife Trust Officer Sue Thurley. During the sessions our volunteers were taught how to prepare and manage the banking area; thinning out young trees, identifying and removing vigorous grasses and planting a variety of wild flower plug plants. Varieties planted during the sessions included; ox eye daisy, birds foot trefoil, yellow rattle and saxifrage burnet.
