Volunteers met at Dersingham Bog on the 23.01.23. Matt from Natural England said the task was to either pull up or cut at ground level the small Pine seedlings growing amongst the Heather. The small seedlings were often quite difficult to see amongst the frost covered Heather. A Landrover and trailer had parked on the Common so that the cut seedlings and saplings collected in piles could then be thrown into the trailer. The removal of the Pine seedlings was to prevent Pine returning and turning heathland to a woodland. GVCG volunteers added to the efforts of those from Natural England and their volunteers. By the end of the morning all the Pine seedling had been removed from the strip of the Bog close to the border of woodland between heathland and the main road.
