Great job by all removing all of this plastic from the trees

We all prepared and cooked a lovely hot vegetable stew on the fire. It was perfect after our hard day of conservation work

We have spent a lot of time removing plastic covers from the young Oaks in our woodland. The cover would have been used to protect the saplings from being eaten by deer. Unfortunately they have never been removed, so now. many years later they are killing the trees by suffocating them and causing rot inside the plastic. Our wonderful work will save dozens of young trees, and remove lots of plastic from the woodland.

Pennywort woods is the perfect environment for Fly Agaric mushrooms. It mainly occurs in association with birch trees, both silver birch (Betula pendula) and downy birch (Betula pubescens), which are widespread in our woodland site.

Helping plant green compost plants and doing our very own version of just dance Carlisle Youth Zone style.

Sorting out the composting beds at Gosling Sike so that they could plant and grow things. Providing that there is no pests (Human or Animal).

John Muir was a man that lived out in the wild for years. He moved to America when he was eleven and made wildlife his home. He lived in a wooden house that he built himself, he used to climb trees if there was a storm just to get a good look (must of been a bit uniquely mad).

Nature at it`s finest green in colour with the sun shining (very rare) marvellous. I discovered Wreay woods as I didn`t know it was there. so we explored the woods to see what we could do to help it. I shared this experience with my friends (ha) at Carlisle Youth Zone. it reminded me of when I was just a wee lad at my nana`s house out at Moorhouse in the country.
