With the loan of Hope Nature Centre’s mobile water tank (thank you Caroline) and armed with as many watering cans and buckets as we could muster, FoSCP set about watering the new hedge in Simpson’s Field. Not quite a work party, more a socially distanced rescue mission.
Watering the hedge

That looks like hard work, Hopefully rain is due at the end of the week, all our gardens need some!
The hedge is doing surprisingly well; the grass has grown up around it and is shading the roots, and the whips are still inside their plastic tubes which seem to have prevented a lot of water loss through evaporation.
