Wildflower bank rake-off

The Trustees were out in force today to complete the annual wildflower bank rake-off.

Did you know that wildflowers flourish in poor soil?

Letting last year’s crop lie on the ground will nourish the soil, which of course you would want for a normal flowerbed. However, for the wildflowers we rake-off what remains of last year.

Several of the Trustees were out today and between them they managed to collect 9 cubic meters of garden waste. Fingers crossed for a colourful wildflower bank in 2023.
