Our regular volunteering days in the woods are now every Tuesday! We meet at the lay-by, bottom of Maker Heights driveway at 9am to head into the woods, we generally finish around 2pm - but there's no obligation to stay till then, you can do just a couple hours if that is what suits you! Tasks vary each week and could be fire-wood processing, vegetation clearance, path maintenance, coppicing, charcoal making, tree work. No experience is required (but if you do have experience we'll love to hear from you!) . Drop us message or get in touch if you'd like to get involved 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳 ... See MoreSee Less
