White's Field hedge replanted by volunteers



Another excellent day of work saw 14 volunteers fully replant the hedgerow with a range of species.  Starting at 10am the work was complete by 2:45 in mostly good weather. After a week of horrendous rain this was excellent fortune.  Volunteers ranged from young to old, including a 13 year old working on his Duke of Edinburgh bronze award.  Young plants included a number of edible species and have been protected from rabbit nibbling with tree guards and supportied with bamboo canes, in part freshly grown and cut in Chinnor.
