It's that time of year again! The Himalayan balsam is springing up along the banks of the river, and needs to be pulled up. It's an invasive plant that swamps native wild plants.
To that end, there will be a gathering of Balsam Bashers at the Warren on Saturday, at 11am - meeting at the Warren car park. Volunteers are asked to wear long sleeves and long trousers, and decent footwear, and bring gardening gloves. The balsam is defenceless, but the nettles and thistles can fight back!
If anyone is interested in going, please contact Sean O'Donoghue on Facebook on the Re/Wilding, Biodiversity and Sustaining the Countryside - Powys and Hereford page.
