Seeds, Seeds, and more Seeds!

Trees for Burnley joined me for a Tree seed collection session. A very wet and wild day led to a tough walk around discovering different trees. We walked for an hour picking seeds and berries from different trees to process. We gathered berries from Rowan trees, seeds from a field Maple tree, acorns from a Turkey Oak and a red oak. We also discovered a cockspur Hawthorn. We took the tough berries from the Hawthorn to process later. After two hours walking around Bank Hall we were all very drenched but had collected a good range of seeds to propagate. No one stayed for a hot drink and biscuits, we were all so miserably wet we decided to part ways and dry off.
