Thank you to Rachel and all who came up to St Mary’s for the Creation Care session in June.  Rachel produced brochures about things that should be looked out for and the flora and wildlife found in the churchyard that day, was noted and  recorded.  I used to know the names of all wild flowers and was disappointed that I had forgotten most of them, perhaps a good time to get to know them again!  The approach to the church looks tidier thanks to those who hoed and swept.  The azalea bushes can now be seen without the growth around them.  The main part of the churchyard is still very much overgrown, as you will all have noticed, we just have to think of the flora and fauna, hopefully thriving among the chaos, which I have to make myself think about every time I look at it in despair!
