Last weekend a group of volunteer Tree Wardens had the opportunity to do a fantastic one-day hedge-laying course - or should I say, a Devon hedge-steeping course! 

It was a glorious day and everyone really enjoyed themselves and learned a lot. It's a great sense of achievement seeing what a group can do in one day. 

The course was taught near Exeter by the incredibly knowledgeable Devon Rural Skills Trust and paid for by The Tree Council

More volunteer Tree Wardens will be doing the course in the coming weekends.
