There will be a hedgerow planting day at The Old Willow Works, Beckingham, this Wednesday 5th March (opposite Beckingham Marshes).

Local community member, RSPB volunteer and member of the Beckingham History Group, Chris du Feu, has sourced funding for 700 hedgrow plants to be planted in the Willow Works Community Garden.

These will be used to fill in the gaps in a hedgerow that was planted last year and will provide both a habitat for wildlife and a landscape feature.

The event starts at 10.15 and will run until about 15.30, but any help at all would be appreciated.  All you'll need is a pair of wellies and a spade.
