Description Our livestock do a good job of keeping the heath open, for the benefit of all the wildlife that depends on it. But occasionally they need a little help, so we will be picking up loppers and bow saws and attacking the invasive birch saplings on the heath, and we could do with as much help as possible! Tools and training will be provided, but please bring some refreshment, wear tough warm clothes, and a good strong pair of boots.
