Mini beast caravan and camping park

Last week we started our new wildlife project! The first step is the creation of a minbeast caravan and camping park in the small woodland area at the back of the park. All day we gathered wool from the farm fences, twigs, logs, woodchip, cut grass, straw (a lot of straw) old bricks, stones, the centres from the wrap that we use on the farm when baling silage plus a lot, lot more. We had a great fun, now we just have to wait and see who moves in to our new accommodation, we have to say that it is glamping at the highest level for minibeast!.  Watch this space for more wildlife projects in the next few weeks!
