Thanks to Clive for these pictures:

Lucille Savin of Abingdon Carbon Cutters has erected a new notice board in Rye Farm Meadow, near where the Park Run begins.

The Abingdon Carbon Cutters have received permission from the Vale of White Horse District Council to plant 1500 native trees in Rye Farm Meadow, and the board provides more information about the trees and the diverse wildlife they will support.

Lucille is frequently seen in Abingdon, assisting at plant stalls and engaging in planting and gardening activities. Here she is showing others how to make Robin boxes.

Lucille is the first female Head Gardener at Merton College, Oxford. She has transformed the College grounds with her innovative planting. She is passionate about using sustainable practices and keeping her team up to date with the latest horticultural trends.
