Brush Pile Creation and Tree Maintenance: Coill na Luise Reserve (Wicklow)
We will meet at Trooperstown Car Park at 10AM on Sunday 10th December 2023 and carpool to our Laragh Reserve nearby.
Once on site, our first priority will be to tackle tree maintenance. We will divide into two teams; Guard Repairers and Maintainers. The repairers will repair any tree guards in need, while the maintainers will cut back competing vegetation at the base of our trees. We will move as a unit from one enclosure of trees to the next.
After a break for tea, coffee and our packed lunches, we will move timber into the reserve into key locations to create our biodiversity brush piles. The timber in question is sourced from a local native oak woodland, where it has fallen naturally, as donated by one of our generous branch members. https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/brush-pile-creation-and-tree-maintenance-coill-na-luise-reserve-wicklow-tickets-764462055587?aff=ebdssbdestsearch
