Along with Sustainable Nantwich and Nantwich in Bloom, our Civic Society members had a gently active morning at Coed Wen ( opposite the far end of the Lake). We were clearing up brash and branches from the recent ash tree felling. With Ash Die Back disease affecting many ash trees in recent years, CEC had felled a lot of ash in the wood as part of their programme across the district. The brash piles will help with shelter and habitats for smaller animals, insects etc. The spaces created will allow new and more varied plants to grow in the lighter areas.
We shall be back for some more work hopefully with wild flower plant plugs.
