Work progressing well on the CVWHAS Mini Bed plot

Posted byNickPosted inEvents

Thanks to all the volunteers who got stuck in on Saturday 9th December to help further clear the site in preparation for our Mini Bed Scheme, due to launch in spring 2024. Despite very dodgy and wet weather first thing, it remained dry for the rest of the day and we got lots done, including relocating a number of fruit trees to the bottom of the site to create a communal orchard, cutting back ivy and building a huge bonfire heap of rotten wood and dug up brambles.
