Yet again it rained on the MAD volunteers work task day on Sunday, however, this did not deter our hardy bunch of volunteers who did a terrific job of removing creeping thistle on a grassland meadow near Oldstead. The area of land the MADs were working on is part of the National Park’s Linking Landscapes project. The objectives of the Linking Landscapes (Habitat Connectivity) Project are to ensure that the best bits of habitat in the National Park are as good as they can be, and to extend these areas and join them up to create corridors for wildlife to move safely around the countryside. It is hoped by removing the creeping thistle, that a more diverse species of flora for flourish in years to come. Well done to everyone for working so hard in very wet conditions!
