Where: We will meet in the reserve (published co-ordinates), access to the reserve is from Laxton Road.

What: Goats Rue is an invasive plant which quickly out competes other species. We pull Goats Rue annually on the reserve to prevent it spreading. Having successfully pulled Goats Rue over the last couple of years we have seen an overall decline in plant numbers.
