River Wye Restoration – Kingsmead, High Wycombe

Kingsmead Car Park 60 Fennels Rd, Buckinghamshire, High Wycombe, United Kingdom

Join us to continue restoring this beautiful rare chalk stream. Tasks will include cutting, thinning and chipping shrubs and trees which will allow more light to reach the river which in turn will encourage plant growth. This process should create narrower channels speeding up the river flow to help remove the silt. Ideally Chalk streams should be narrow, meandering streams, not wide silty rivers.

Munces Wood Community Conservation Cut, Marlow 9.30am – 1pm

Munces Wood Highview Close Entrance, Marlow, United Kingdom

This is a family event.

We are cutting back ash trees which are suffering from Ash Die Back and creating scallops along the bottom path adjacent to High View Close. This will create light encouraging growth of the rich ground flora in this part of the woods.

Meet at 9.30am - High View Close Entrance SL7 3QN Grid Ref: SU8457 8957.  Please do not park in High View Close as it is a very small road. Help the wood's neighbours and spread your parking around in the surrounding roads and then walk up.

Ancient Woodland Restoration – Penn Wood

Family/Whole Community event

Join Chiltern Rangers to fell Western Hemlock from this beautiful ancient woodland and restore it back to it's natural native broad leafed habitat. The felled Hemlock will be cut into smaller pieces and made into log pile houses for wildlife.

Western Hemlock was introduced by botanist David Douglas in the 19th century for timber.  The wood was used for roofs and boxes as it holds nails well without splitting.  This is a fast growing non-native tree, it casts a large shaded area which means very few plants or wildlife species can live beneath them.

We will be running two sessions:

AM Session: 10am (safety briefing) - 12pm

PM Session: 12pm (safety briefing) - 2pm

Join us for either session, or for both, but please ensure you arrive on time for one of the safety briefings at Holy Trinity Church Car Park, Penn Street, HP7 0PX. All tools, training and gloves provided, as well as teas/coffees/hot chocolate! Please bring yourself a packed lunch if you are attending both sessions.
