This evening's meeting of the group raised many issues - including;
- the land banking near bussage - we talked about going to talk to residents there to share our experiences and maybe show our DVDs of various programmes on the topic.
- maintenance of the fields - they are being cut once a year - not as good as grazing but adequate - problems arise only when weeds/scrub starts to appear - apparently 8 weeds are listed as particularly bad incl nettles, dock and ragwort.
- the walk was noted as a huge success that we plan to repeat next summer.
- the route being followed by Greg Mullholland MP to change the law has failed so far so we talked about next steps - writing to MPs, national organisations etc to take this forward. We need to try and prevent this happenning more.
- started to look at possibilities for future - what about a charity for landowners to donate their land to when they realise it has no value?
