There was an autumnal feel in the woodland this month and the first bit of leaf raking for this year. It was lovely to have a bit of sunshine after a lot if rain the day before.
The apples were picked from the Baldwin heritage apple tree. Bit difficult to see here!
We made a start on reinstating the little ditch which runs through the centre of the woodland. At this stage it was just removing small shrubs with hand tools but we did make a difference.
The noticeboard was updated with a new quiz and a bigger hole made in the bottom of the fire pit for improved drainage. The hazel trees in the den area were mulched to keep in the moisture which will help with growth. The den is in a shady part of the wood and they are taking a long time to grow.
