Nature Recovery Network Meadow Restoration @ Long Mead, Eynsham

• Events Home

Location:- Long Mead Barn / Community Meadows around Eynsham, Oxford Road,
Swinford OX29 4BT
Come to Long Mead for a hands on, positive restorative day together.
If the soil has re-hydrated sufficiently we will be planting out the hand propagated rare wildflower plants, which our wednesday plant propagation group has been growing and nurturing through the year, in Swinford meadows across the river. These are meadows that we have leased from Oxford Preservation Trust to restore for nature as part of our Thames Valley Wildflower Meadow Restoration Project, which is been selected as one of Oxfordshire's Strategic Projects in its Local Nature Recovery Strategy.
If the soil is still hard and dry we will continue our restoration activities on Long Mead - eg creating our compost from molehills and willow woodchip, seed shucking, sowing next year's tree and wildflower seeds, creating our new tree nursery beds, starting the work of turning the Neyotts Willow Coppice into Wet Woodland, which is a habitat almost as rare as our floodplain meadows.
