Many thanks to everyone who has been diligently watering the 6 new trees in Paradise. This, together with the weekly delivery of 30 litres by Olwen, Brian and Dario, will be ensuring that the trees survive this dry spring.
This regime will go on through May and June, so do please continue with your efforts, as these occasional short sharp showers are not enough to keep the trees alive.
In July and August we are employing Mercer Tree care to do professional weekly watering, as it is likely to be a hot dry summer, and the ditch will probably dry up. To finance this we will need to raise funds of £1000. Donations, however small, will be very welcome, as the Friends’ funds were used up purchasing the trees and paying for their planting .
Any donations can be paid into the Metro bank account we have:
Business Account: Paradise Nature Reserve
Account number: 45094294
Sort code: 23.05.80
Your name will appear on the bank statement next to your donation, but if you would like an acknowledgement please leave your name as reference.
Thank you…every little helps!
Best wishes,
Pam Gatrell
