Not only does an hour’s litter picking ⁦@StGilesVillage⁩ improve the environment for us and wildlife, it brings a feel good factor, keeps us active and develops community spirit. Lovely to be thanked by so many by-passers. Thanks for your thanks. ⁦@BucksRecycles⁩ ⁦

Lovely sunny morning planting snowdrops, primroses and foxgloves at Pheasant Hill. Thanks to those who turned out to help and @CStGilesPC for funding. Also got closer look at fritillaries and daffs planted in the Autumn. Sadly other bulbs under water by the river.

Lovely morning spent planting 1500 bulbs, wild daffodils and fritillaries in Pheasant Hill and Riverside Walk. Thanks to those who turned out to help. Also thanks to the two beaver colonies who planted crocus and snowdrops earlier in the week and to Yaldens for the violas.

We’ve done our ⁦@savebutterflies⁩ count and will be doing more before 6Aug. Great way to spend 15 mins, enjoying nature in our garden and helping scientists understand the effects of #ClimateChange. Why not join in? It’s a free and a fun thing to do with children.

The Memorial Gardens in Old Amersham are a sight to behold, beautiful creative planting showing what can be achieved with the right mindset, community involvement and a strong group of volunteers. Well done @AmershamTC and all involved - shining example to all

The ⁦@RiverChess⁩ looking good today.


One of the joys of summer is watching #butterflies flit between flowers collecting nectar. Why not help conserve them by taking part in @SaveButterflies #BigButterflyCount which runs until 6 Aug. It’s fun, educational and free! …erflycount.butterfly-conservation.org


Want to learn how you can help reduce #plasticpollution ? Join us for “Gardening Without Plastic” a talk by @SallyNex at CSG Memorial Hall 7.30 July 13th. Visitors welcome!
