On the 15th of July, a local company sent volunteers to the garden; a lot was completed on the day!

| Relocation of wild garlic |
Wild garlic was relocated into the shaded bed near the compost toilet and some pendulous sedge was planted to replace the garlic. Charlotte thinks the garlic will be a good ground cover for the bed.

| The creation of the hazel barrier |
A hazel barrier was made, in order to prevent people cutting through our bike rack area. We want to plant a ground cover plant there, such as ivy.
Windows were sanded and painted for the meeting hut and panels were made from pallets to cover our wood storage space, so we can lock it up.
Finally, a wildlife wood pile was created for ground beetles and hopefully stag beetles too! Stag beetles are found in the southern area of England, especially around woodland areas. However, they are also sometimes found in gardens that have a lot of trees.

| The group of excellent volunteers |
We are definitely all impressed by the group's hard work.
