A diary of nature conservation, mainly in west London, named after the 1883 book of the same name, written by Richard Jefferies
24-09-11 Orleans House Gardens
The first volunteer day of the Autumn was a big event with at least 50 volunteers putting their backs into laying woodchip paths, removing sycamore saplings and cutting back vegetation and ivy to open the view to Orleans House from across the river. The new cohort from Tower House School demonstrated their energy and team work, and we were thrilled to have the help of students from Richmond upon Thames and Esher Colleges, and girls of Marymount School. Lynsey Stafford, Zeph King and Patrick Kidner led the volunteers with the guidance of Joy Lee, who is responsible for the Gardens. Many thanks to you all!
