SUMMARY:Yellow Rattle Harvesting in Hope Wood
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 8 July 2026: Yellow Rattle Harvesting in Hope Wood from 10.30am – 3pm. \nYellow Rattle is a semi-parasitic plant which helps to weaken dominant grass growth to create more favourable conditions for native wildflowers. It is known as “The Meadow Maker”. Yellow Rattle was sown in the top field of the Hope Wood site last year with spectacular results this summer. It has now set seed\, some of which will stay to continue its work next year\, but we can also harvest it to help create new meadows elsewhere in Devon. \n  \nParkLife and Moor Meadows would like to invite you to take part in this satisfying activity for all or part of the day. \nYou will receive full instructions on what to do. We will be collecting the seeds by hand\, and you are welcome to take some to create your own meadow\, of whatever size. Bring a bucket or canvas bag in which to collect the seeds. \nPlease walk or cycle to Hope Wood\, following the ParkLife signs from the Recreation Ground. The entrance to the meadow is on the north side of Portford Lane. \n Please keep dogs on a lead. Small children are welcome if closely supervised.  \nNo cars allowed.  \nFFI contact: office@parklife.org.uk.   \n  \nFor more information about Hope Wood click here

SUMMARY:Balsam Bashing at Hope Wood
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 4 June 2026: Balsam Bashing at Hope Wood; 10.30am – 2.30pm. \nIt’s that time of year again with the Himalayan balsam beginning to show its face in several places. Can you help ParkLife SW clear Himalayan Balsam from the banks of the Horse Brook? If this aggressive non-native invasive plant is allowed to set seed\, it spreads like wildfire along streams crowding out the native plants and wildflowers that we’re trying to encourage. \nPlease join us: Tools provided\, wear appropriate clothes\, shoes & gardening gloves. \nFollow ParkLife signs from the Palstone Park Rec.  \nOrganised by Park Life in conjunction with Sustainable South Brent and South Hams District Council
