Last Saturday, the 24th of January, committee members Rich Sylvester and Gail Stirling and another volunteer, were in Westcombe Woodlands to take delivery of several dozen tree saplings. They “heeled in” the delivery of 17 different tree species at the Lasseter Place area of the woodlands until we are ready to plant these during the February volunteer morning. As you can see in the photo, the greenery is laid on top of the soil to discourage our resident foxes from digging up the tree saplings. Some of the species that we took delivery of were blackthorn, silver birch, dog rose, elder, hazel, lime bird cherry, oak and hawthorn.
