Hedgerow Heroes in Flitton & Greenfield

25th November 2024

The CPRE Bedfordshire Hedgerow Heroes project arrived in Flitton & Greenfield in November 2024.

Over six days, forty two volunteers planted around 2,000 saplings, creating over 400 metres of new hedgerow. They were fuelled with a plentiful supply of mince pies!

Planting day 1 – our volunteers enjoyed some late autumn sunshine.
Tree planting spades are designed for the planting of saplings.
Smiles all round on day 3!
