Review of Woodland and Hedgerow Work Party 12/2016 to
Tucking Mill farm, Zeal Monochorum, EX17 6DF
Bill hook action burning the brash chainsaws in action cut hazel stool and steepers hedgeline with elm standards John lighting fire Pete with the new first aid kit Pete's first aid induction : All agog site clearing standard elms Taking logs to the log pile uncrooked laid hedge
Last outing this year. The
usual suspects, laying the orchard hedge returning to the track.
Thin pickings of elm suckers and thorn with few hazel stools. Mild
with a slight easterly and low cloud. We worked through a short
unforecasted shower, feeling all the better when it eased off.
Repaired to The Waie Inn for a pint and chinwag and bounced off
some ideas and thoughts. ................
We shall continue hedge-laying the final side of the orchard. If
it is dry we may burn the brash from the previous session.
