If you are tempted to trundle your garden rubbish over on to the Common to tip it out, after all it is biodegradable think again!
Cultivated plants seem to love the conditions and will quickly take hold, smothering and replacing the wild plants so destroying the natural mixture of the woodland. Our Common Ranger has to spend a lot of time removing fly- tipped garden rubbish to maintain the integrity of the Common.
Why not compost it, offer surplus plants to neighbours or pot then up for a plant sale. If all else fails, take your garden rubbish down to the dump! Special offer – a free Dacorum compost bin (providing you collect it) to the first person who phones 01923 264433.
