Yesterday we hosted a @Yorkcares team challenge. Great team, and ticked a few more jobs off the task list!
Weeding the entrance (not stirictly our job but we try to be good neighbours!), making a new flower bed and clearing some paths

The @RHS_Rosemoor team have been busy in the Cottage Garden meadow!
Cutting the meadow near the apple trees can be tricky, so they use a hand scythe, which provides a cleaner cut, is less harmful to wildlife, and is quieter 🌱
What's the oldest garden tool in your shed?

@leylakazim There are almonds all over UK, planted mostly for the early blossom rather than the fruit. Last year though we had a very good crop here in North Yorkshire.
Didn’t realise you could eat immature fruit though @AbundanceYork

My Dad just sent me a pic of these he picked from a public park in Dartford southeast London. And he says they're early stage almonds.
What? There are almond trees just growing in public in London? Do they mature to the almonds we know? And are these actually almonds?

@jackwallington The problem with looking to nature generally means it isn’t a money spinner and in a world where it’s only going to happen if someone makes some money…

Is it easier to look to nature? wildway.jackwallington.com/p/wild-way-of-…

@jackwallington I guess if your waste goes to incineration rather than landfill it can just go in the bin 🤷
English
This is a good question I don’t know the answer to, can anyone help? I’m guessing it’s through a council hazardous waste service but I can’t find much info on it

@jackwallington @asda What's the best way to dispose of weedkillers left in your house when you moved in?

@FossFairyTrail Have you seen Arbtalk’s drop site register, we occasionally get some this way, in fact it’s the only way unless some of our neighbours have had trees removed.

Calling all tree Surgeons 📣 We want your wood chippings please for our path. Just contact fossfairytrail@gmail.com
TheFossFairyTrail@FossFairyTrail
Thank you lovely @GoodGymYork for your help today. We have been trying to keep the footpath passable with gravel and wood chippings and are relocating one of the information boards.

Please don't cut back ivy if tidying your garden! At this time of year in the UK, its flowers are a great late season pit-stop for struggling pollinators like bees, butterflies, hoverflies and moths. Then the berries will feed hungry birds in winter 🐝🌿

On Saturday we planted out Tansy from @YorkGreenfields and @YSJSustain along the #riverfoss
Beautiful day, beautiful fungi and beautiful autumn colours.

@marksandspencer You’re welcome. Hope to see it improved upon, its all been put in the compost-if the film is compostable that’s great, otherwise I’ll be fishing it back out in about six months time 😁

@YorkGreenfields I've reported this back to our packaging team so they can see if we can improve on this. Thanks for taking the time to bring this to our attention - Simon

Entirely pointless message @marksandspencer if you don’t tell us how or even what materials are involved 🤔
English
@marksandspencer There isn’t a barcode on the bag, it’s from the in store bakery, the bar code was on a paper label wrapped round the loaf of bread I chose.
English
@YorkGreenfields Hi there, I'm sorry about this. Please could you DM us with a photo of the barcode on the packaging? I'll raise this with our Packaging Team so I can get some more information for you. - Sian twitter.com/messages/compo…

Sarah West@SarahWest_SEI
