inRiki Therivel has done some more work at the Community Woodland.
She has put up some more sleeves and stakes. There are now three piles of discarded stakes which will provide log piles, useful for biodiversity. Riki has sorted the tree sleeves into two piles: a smaller pile of broken sleeves, and a larger pile of reusable sleeves which will be donated to the Oxford Woodland Project
Lots of work remains to be done and all volunteers very welcome:
1. Finish tying the tippy trees to the stakes. Please bring your own twine and get stuck in!
2.Take away and dispose of the broken sleeves
3. Rearrange the piles of stakes into a messier pattern: to make them better homes for hedgehogs etc.
4. Would someone like to make a sculpture?

inThanks to the many volunteers who came to help, we have made great progress on the Community Woodland.
Helped along by fantastic weather and cakes provided by Riki and Maggie, our 16 volunteers helped to stake the trees. Many of the little trees had fallen over, pulled by stakes that had rotted inside the tree shelters. We removed the rotten stakes from the tree shelters, hammered them in again outside the tree shelters, and re-attached the shelters to the ‘new’ recycled stakes.
We ran out of twine and so were not able to finish the job. In case you would like to help with the woodland in your own time, please bring some string/twine along and tie any loose tree shelters to the adjacent stake.
