The Big Bury Balsam Bash is coming to Rammy!Join us to help evict this unwanted guest from Nuttall Park! 🌱👊
Join us for a few hours to help protect our lovely native flowers. It’s easy, oddly satisfying, and a great excuse to get some light outdoor exercise. Plus, it’s a brilliant way to meet like minded people. Stay for an hour or hang around for the whole session — totally up to you.
Everyone is welcome, of all ages — including well behaved dogs and children 🐕
Feeling a bit nervous about turning up on your own? We’ve all been there! If you’d like to meet someone beforehand so you recognise a friendly face, just email [email protected] or message Faye via the event page. We’re more than happy to meet up before the event — either on the morning itself or during the week leading up. We really want everyone to feel comfortable and welcome.
What to expect
We’ll be pulling up Himalayan balsam in the great outdoors. Don’t worry if you’ve never done it before — full instructions will be given, and it’s very easy to pick up.
The practical bits
Parking: Parking is available at Nuttall Park
Meet: By the Nuttall Park Base
Postcode: BL0 9LU
What3Words: ///headache.victory.multiples
What to wear
Old clothes are a must! Long sleeves, trousers, and gardening or work gloves are recommended. Balsam likes to hang out with nettles and brambles, so covering arms and legs is a good idea. Sturdy shoes or boots please.
What to bring
No tools needed — we’ve got that covered. You might want to bring a drink and a snack to keep you going.
The serious (but necessary) bit
Everyone takes part at their own risk. The group and its members can’t accept liability for any accidents or injuries. A first aid kit will be available for minor injuries.
A full risk assessment is available via our Facebook group Balsam Bashing Ramsbottom, or by emailing [email protected] to request a copy.
