With hedge planting imminent – a family-based planting event will be held on Sunday 1st December - we have an urgent need to complete the preparation of the ground ready for planting. There will be two additional work parties at Long Meadow:

• Sunday 17th November, at 10.30 – this REPLACES a scheduled work party at Croft Close

• Saturday 23rd November, at 2pm.

These will both involve grubbing out of bramble and digging over the soil ready to plant into on December 1st.

We start by the fence at the village end of Long Meadow.

Please register in advance by emailing sitemanagers@abbeyfields.online. This allows us to let you know if the work party has to be cancelled, and also to ask you, if you can, to bring specific tools to suit the planned tasks.

Please come dressed for the weather, with stout footwear and gloves.
