We ran 3 sessions of woodland management and camp maintenance over the winter and got lots done. Many thanks to everyone who so kindly volunteered to help out! Here’s a selection of photos that show some of the things we accomplished.
Lots of bramble pulling in the camp area; it’s much easier when the ground is wet. And after all the rain at the start of the year, it was definitely wet!
Sections of the wood have been devasted by ash dieback. We’ve felled around 250 over the last few years. These were in parts of the wood we don’t visit very often and were caught up.
Making repairs to the debris shelters and re-thatching them.
Repairs to the camp kitchen.
Making bow staves.
If you’d like to get involved next winter, we’d be glad to have you along.
Thanks for having me over the winter camps Gary and Nicola hope your both well and have a great year at the camp
