Enjoying some baked potatoes at a previous volunteer event
There will be a volunteer event at Fleet Pond this coming Sunday and all are welcome to attend (see below for registering).
Colin Gray, Chairman of Fleet Pond Society, writes:
“There is a lot of cut material that needs to be burned waiting for us on Fugelmere Marsh. That will be our main task for the day. This means that baked potatoes are on the menu and I will obtain these early in the week. There will also be some cutting to do of alder and the new hedge needs a trim. So it could be a busy morning.
The soil conditions should be firm but wet so waterproof boots will probably be OK rather than wellies.
As usual a warm drink will be provided mid-morning but if you need a cold drink please bring your own.”
For further information and booking (which is essential as tools and resources have to be planned beforehand), please contact Hart Countryside Services:

The Sunday volunteer tasks are supervised by a Hart Countryside Ranger together with members of Fleet Pond Society.
