Tree Planting...

A very big
THANK YOU
to everyone who came along
to help plant the new saplings
which were given to us by
The Woodland Trust.




Despite the grey weather,
and the fact it was Easter weekend,
it was a great turn-out.
So good to see so many
local people getting involved.



Another big THANK YOU 
to the anonymous donor
who paid for the tree protectors 
and canes.


This little copse is adjacent
to Ghost Wood and will
enhance the local area
by adding some colour,
and it will encourage
birds and wildlife.


It will also provide
a shady area for families
to enjoy picnics,
while still allowing 
plenty of green space
for children to run around on.


The project has the backing of
Colchester Borough Council
and local Counsellors.

Hello Autumn...



Autumn has well and truly
arrived on Greenstead Slopes.






While the trees display oranges and reds
there are many other colours
to be found if you look down.







There's still plenty of wildlife around
including a few butterflies, ladybirds 
and shield bugs.
