Event details
28 February 2012 - 10:00am - 3:30pm
Join us in our 50th anniversary year & make a real difference!
Come along and help us make a real difference to this important SSSI, Orton Moss. Despite its name the site is a mixture of wet grassland and woodland. We will be working to reduce the amount of non-native sycamore and beech in the woodland, as well as opening up and restoring areas of herb-rich wet grassland. We may also do some fencing and access improvement work. Booking is essential. Please contact Kevin Scott on 01228 829575. Please bring appropriate outdoor clothing and a packed lunch.
