The Fight the Aliens Day was another huge success after more than 60 volunteers attended to pull the pesky non-native species Himalayan Balsam in Rydal last Saturday. #BalsamBashing

Friends of the Lake District, our partners for this event, have released a press release here; https://www.friendsofthelakedistrict.org.uk/news/volunteers-pull-together-to-fight-the-aliens

There are some pictures below for you. Fancy find out more about Himalayan Balsam and how to pull it? Take a look at the invasive species section of our website as well as this great video made by our volunteers about how to pull Balsam: VIDEO

Many thanks to all involved!
