Sunday Session

**Location change to Val de la Mare from Adelina Woods**

Jersey Trees for Life is hosting an open volunteering session at Val de la Mare Arboretum on Sunday 11 October at 10.30am.

If you're interested in trees and nature, or fancy getting out into the fresh air for a bit of gentle exercise on a autumn morning, we'd love you to join us.

This time the activity will be purging invasive sycamore growth and removing ivy from our dawn redwoods.

You can sign up here for free if you're interested in attending.

We'll meet at 10:30am in the main car park at the top end of the arboretum (across the main road from aMaizin Adventure Park):
