Citizen Forester, Barnfield Park Tree Nursery, Bury

The Details

Nursery tasks vary each week, recently we have built compost bays, installed weed membrane, built fencing and removed weeds from around the site.

No prior experience needed, just a passion for the outdoors and a willingness to get stuck in!

All tools will be provided, please wear suitable clothing for outdoor work and sturdy footwear. Drop in for an hour or stay the whole day – you will be guided throughout the day.

This activity is suitable for adults only due to tools being used.

Barnfield has a functioning kitchen with a toaster, fridge, microwave, hot water, tea, coffee, and milk all provided for volunteers to use.
