Hedge Laying Course

The two days for the hedge laying went very well. We were extremely lucky with the weather as the forecast had not been promising and the days proceeding were awful. Five people came on the Friday and six on the Saturday. We took them through the basics of hedge laying and then worked on the hedge showing the 'volunteers' the stages of hedge laying and letting them lose on the hedge. Everyone worked hard and over the two days laid about two thirds of the hedge, all having ago at each stage. The feedback we had was that everyone had a very enjoyable day and learnt alot.

As we had so many people apply for the course and there is still a third to do we are running another session this Saturday - I have to say though that the weather forecast this time really does look rather dire!
