We’ve had a good turn-out of members pulling the dreaded weed so far, with several people who couldn’t make the previous sessions saying they’d like to hear about any further chances. Others told me they’d missed our limited publicity and would like a chance to join in.

Please tell anyone you think might be interested too.

We’re running four more sessions over the next two weeks, and there may even be more to come.

Dates to be published soon.

Much of the balsam is interspersed with nettles, especially by Yearsley baths, so wear long sleeves and trousers and bring gloves! It’s not hard work, though it does involve some bending. But it is very satisfying!

I hope to see you at one of the pulls.
