Today we ventured back up to the surrounding areas of Maker
on the edge of Cornwall.
Orginally we had planned to spend the day rhododendron burning in the
beautifully bluebell strewn surroundings of Maker Woodlands.
However upon arriving we decided it was just far too windy to tackle this task
today, as you can kindly see visually represented by Jules.
Therefore we hopped back in the minibus and headed up to the main
Maker site to work on our ongoing Wildflower meadow.
Someone was extremely glad of change of task for the day...
Which included a lot of additional 'petting'...
However at the mention of 'work' he decided it was time to lounge in the grass for a nap..
Soon we all got stuck into preparing the next quarter of our flower bed
This included removing a ton enormous bramble and nettle roots...
You thought the weeds in your garden were scary
Soon though the patch was all ready..
And with our little sachet of seeds...
The girls happily obliged in sowing the meadow....
Whilst Chris 'photographed' this mushroom....
We then headed back to the bus for lunch,
including a belting out ALL BY MYSELF at the top of our lungs-much
to the delight of the nearby campsite...
We then headed down to one of the old maker forts to burn up some drying bramble from one of sessions earlier in the year...
It was rather hot weather....
....so it wasn't long before....
...the bramble was all burned up..
We then had time to award Julz with her 50hours PEA certificate....
And allow some of the PEA members to mingle in their natural habitat...
Preferably within close vicinity of a local ice-cream vendor...
