Feb - June 2008

Work commitments have prevented me from keeping up the blog.

However, we have been keeping the paths open, trimming back hedges and verges and clearing occasional fallen trees.

We have also been trying a new organic herbicide to try to keep the ragwort down. There have been mixed results, as there is still evidence of ragwort in the Leach Fields, but far less than we have had in previous years. As the teatment was rather expensive, we may revert to hand pulling in future.
