Planting around Church Fields
We have done some planting to help pollinators with a range of wildflowers and trees, namely purging buckthorn to attract Brimstone Butterflies whose caterpillars use this plant as their primary food source. With any luck, we should have some of these beautiful butterflies become resident in our village.
To find out more about purging buckthorn and woodland, check out Woodland Trust.
To find out more about this and other amazing butterflies, check out Butterfly Conservation.
Many thanks to Terry, Karen and Sara for helping with the planting around Church Fields.
