Myself and Matthew

Two groups this morning. At Blackmoorfoot, Geoff led myself Tanya, Ben, Jim, Stephen, and Dianne. Planting 125 trees along two edges of a field. Philip led Dan, Dave and Matthew adding 60 plants to a hedge in need of help at Hey Knowles, and then joined us to finish off at Blackmoorfoot.

Horses

Up Crowther Laithe, Marsden today, planting two shortish tredges (as I believe hedges with a few trees might now be called?)

An eventful morning, with a fox, chickens, soup, biscuits, grubs, and some break-dancing horses.

We were Philip, Stephen, Jess, Tanya, myself, Dave, Matthew, and Dan.

Pule Hill

A trip to Pule Hill to replace some failed trees for National Trust. 

We were; myself, Geoff, Dave, Philip, Stephen, Dan, Jon, Tess, Tanya, Ben, Jim, Peter, and Matthew.

I think we replaced over 200 trees.

Lovely weather, and that was nice because we were going for our Christmas drink after at the Sair, and it was good to be relatively clean and dry for that. Good beer, good company, and pasties from the Handmade Bakery in Slaithwaite.

All the lovely photos by Tanya, as usual.
