IMPORTANT REQUEST FOR HELP
Dear SOS Whatcombe Fields Shareholders
To maintain the diversity of the fields, we need your help. We are holding two thistle-pulling mornings, from 10.00am to 1.00pm, (meeting at the Vernal Lane entrance to the fields) on Sunday 30th April (see report below date 30.4.23) and Saturday 27th May (see report below date 27.5.23)
And an extra session on 30th July, also notified by Mailchimp (added to 27.5.23)
This will be an easy and fun job: we can even have a 'Number of Thistles Pulled' competition!
Please wear sturdy boots and appropriate clothing. Bring gloves and knives if you have them; we do have some gloves if needed.
If you have any questions, please call Jenny on 07760 313305.
Regards,
Steve Small on behalf of the Directors

11 January 2019Water Trough Base Heightened
Some of the cattle we hosted last year 2018 were smaller than those we have had before. A few of them struggled to drink well from the water troughs, which had been used for many years. The ground around the one between the Sledging and Big Fields had been worn away over the years, so today hardcore and soil was added to the Sledging Field side to heighten the ground.
Sue, Ian M., Jimm & Dave, with help from Henry, who donated the second trailer load accomplished this in 5 hours this morning. That was enough for anyone! JY
First load of stones for the ground next to the trough 9AM.

Almost finished 1PM.
