#BanWindfarmsOnProtectedPeatland - Here is the @naturalengland.bsky.social Peat depth map for #WalshawMoor, intended site of 300MW #CalderdaleWindfarm, which has erased most of the blanket bog from their habitats map and produced a poor quality interpolated peat depth map of their own

We are grateful as always for all the help and support from our brilliant volunteers who make it possible to grow many our own trees at our community tree nursery in Mytholmroyd instead of buying all the trees we need from commercial nurseries for our hedge, woodland creation and #NFM projects 🌱🌳🙏💚😍

We would like to say a huge thank you to all our lovely volunteers who came to help out with the site maintenance volunteer day on Thursday, 6th March 🙏 Lots of broken stakes, cable ties and deer guards sorted as well as replanting around 300 trees#volunteerday #volunteers #Gorpley #gorpleyreservoir

We will be out doing maintenance on the big tree planting site at Gorpley reservoir this Thursday 6th March. We will be replanting trees and replacing tree stakes where high winds or stray sheep have caused some damage and we would really appreciate some help.

South Pennine Moors are part of a curlew breeding hotspot and a Special Protection Area for them and other birds. That's one reason @protectourpeat.bsky.social is petitioning government to ban windfarms on protected peatland in England - please sign and share petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Productive day at the nursery on Friday with gusty 45mph winds and a few showers just for good measure. Thank you to all our #volunteers who came and helped this week. Julie usually works on a Friday but chose to volunteer with us as part of her work World Pledge Day so it worked out well for us 🌍💚🌳

A big shout out to Deborah and Toby for volunteering at our community tree nursery. We spent a few hours getting trees ready for delivery and for a planting session with a cub scout group. Unfortunately, the planting got postponed just as we got all the trees ready for loading 😬 All in a days work!

Curlews, the largest European wading bird, nest on the moors in the spring. Curlew numbers have declined with numbers halved from 40 years ago. Please sign and share the Parliamentary petition to ban windfarms on protected peatlands and save the Curlews.

Peatland is a vital ecosystem that forms over 1000's of years and acts as a carbon sink by storing vast amounts of carbon and is also home to many rare plants, insects and birds on the RSPB red list at risk of extinction.
