Sunday 20 August: Stapleford (Stapleford Parish Council)
Our second visit to this site which is a small area of wildflower meadow at the edge of the village. It will entail a little scything and then raking off previously cut summer growth. It is a site which has been carefully nurtured and developed by the dedication of a few in the village.
Meet at work site in Stapleford village, grid ref SK 881 577

SEPTEMBER 2017
Sunday 3 September: St Bartholomew's Church, Appleby (St Bartholomew's PCC)
Travelling to just outside Scunthorpe we will be working in a churchyard to scythe and rake off summer growth. This is to help maintain the churchyard which is managed as a wildflower meadow rather than just as an expanse of regularly mown grass. A new site for us.
Note the slightly later start time: 10.30 a.m.
Meet at St Bartholomew's Church, Church Lane, Appleby - DN15 0AG

OCTOBER 2017
Sunday 1 October: Monks Wood, Dunholme (Nettleham Woodland Trust)
It’s nice to return to this area of new woodland that was created from scratch – the first trees were planted in 2009. We will be scything and raking along the glades, weaving in the new growth along the willow tunnels, doing some ditch digging and spreading woodchip on paths.
Meet at the reserve. Ashing Lane is 2nd right (travelling from Lincoln) off the A46 Dunholme bypass. Grid ref TF 041 793
