We squeezed in a special Task Day to finish our experimental wildflower bed
A small group of volunteers were at the park today to complete the wildflower bed started during the Treasure Hunt Task Day last weekend.
As many people will know, our first attempt at a large wildflower meadow in the park a couple of years ago wasn't very successful.
So this time we've down-scaled to a more manageable size so that we can experiment to find out what works best before trying to do something so big again.
The bed has been cleared and planted with Yellow Rattle plugs grown at home by our volunteers. We've also sown seed today, including some that was supplied to us by Cheshire Wildlife Trust, who have also given us the Pollinator Patch stickers too. We've staked and roped it off in the hope that visitors to the park will stay off the bed and keep their dogs off too please.
