About this Event
Pathside gorse cutting at Kincorth Hill LNR
Join the Countryside Ranger Service and volunteers from SEPA for a joint conservation event at Kincorth Local Nature Reserve. This important habitat is home to a diverse array of wildlife and your help is needed to ensure that the reserve remains accessible for the general public.
Our activities will focus on:
- Gorse Removal: using saws and loppers, we will cut back invasive gorse, which is enroaching upon the path and making access difficult for site users.
- Clearing vegetation from the edges of the pond to ensure pond plants aren't shaded out.
This is a fantastic opportunity to learn about what it takes to be a ranger, meet like-minded people, and make a tangible impact on your local greenspace.
Additional Information:
All tools and equiptment will be provided, along with guidance from the team. No prior experience is necessary - just bring your enthusiasm and willingness to make a difference!
What to Bring:
- Suitable outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear
- Thick gardening gloves (if you have them, if not gloves will be provided)
- Lunch and plenty of drinking water
