Come join us for a day of hedge planting, restoring lost hedgerows near Merriments Lane! Let’s be Hedgerow Heroes together and make a positive impact on the environment. No experience necessary, just bring your enthusiasm and willingness to get your hands dirty. It’s a great opportunity to connect with nature and meet like-minded people. Mark your calendar and see you there!
Sign up to volunteer as an individual or why not get your friends, family, or colleagues involved for a team day out?! We can have up to 30 people at each day.
The planting will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 13th Jan to 5th Feb. Feel free to help at more than one! The more the merrier. For more information email rebecca.messenger@kent.gov.uk
Location: Merriments Lane, TN32 – more information TBA closer to the event.
