Working Party on the Green Saturday April 26th 2025

[Spring has well and truly sprung and the Green has fresh new growth and buds.
]
But now it's time to get ready for Summer !

[So can you come to help please to lend a hand please?
]
There's lots to do to be sure the Green is at its best for everyone to use

1. Continuing to remove grass to widen the path back to its original width so two people can walk side by side and which is more wheelchair and pushchair friendly. (Spades)

2. Clearing wayward growth of blackthorn near to the top hedge (Loppers / secateurs)

3. Oiling the buzzard by the gate (Oil supplied)

4. Sanding parts of the play area to ensure they are smooth (Elbow Grease)

5. Cutting back growth on the edge of the woodland areas around the 'new' fruit trees. (Loppers / secateurs)

These photos from previous work days show the "Friends of the Green" team with some of the Trustees doing similar jobs and it was amazing to see how much a team can achieve in a couple of hours.

So this year , if you can spare a couple of hours to give us a hand please , we'd love to see you, mums, dads and kids, anytime between 9.30 and noon on Saturday April 26th.

Warm clothes, wellies and gardening gloves recommended. We'll have some tools available but if you bring along a spade , loppers, secateurs, a rake that would be helpful.

With Many Thanks and Best Wishes

Your Henbury Millennium Green Trustees
