Conservation Work Parties at Moor Green

Building the bridge accross the ditch on Long Island - 1 December 2009Conservation work parties at Moor Green Lakes start at 10:30 and continue until about 15:30 or 16:00. Anyone is welcome, including non-members; just turn up. Volunteers are welcome to attend for just a few hours if they can't spare time for the whole session. Protective equipment and tools are provided for the tasks planned, but you will need to dress in suitable clothing; brambles feature in most of the activities, so old clothing is recommended. Tea/coffee and biscuits are provided, you may want to bring a packed lunch if you are staying all day.
