BBOWT
We work with the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust (BBOWT) on their many sites through the Vale. Here are just a few of those activities.
Among the giant snow-topped ant hills of Pilch Field, we remove scrub that is encroaching on this wildflower meadow.
A grand bonfire follows!
Pulling weeds in a wildflower meadow at Lamplands Farm.
In Rushbeds Wood, we clear a large semicircular area to encourage new growth and introduce more light into this area of the woodland.
The thinned trees provide material to build a natural fence around the open space.
Pulling thistles in Luggershall Meadow - a newly acquired BBOWT site in 2022.
Clearing brambles and hawthorn from the edges of Bernwood Meadows to make more room for wildflowers.
Clearing blackthorn from the edge of the very wet Arncott Bridge Meadows on a day in February.
These meadows are a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
