 Conservation Working Parties    RECIPE OF THE MONTH
 Over recent years our volunteers at the conservation working parties have really
 helped to improve the wildlife value of the natural habitats alongside the stream   Thanks to our WI members for sharing their favourites
 and at Souls Moor. We hope the sessions will restart in the coming months. Look
 out  for  more  details  in  future  Parish  Magazines,  through  the  village  Facebook
 page and via our e-mail contacts (if you are not on our list and would like to be,   Butternut Squash and Lentil Casserole
 please e-mail mike.n.g@outlook.com).
          Well  Autumn is  definitely  here  so how  about  a winter  warmer.  With  meat

          getting so expensive why not try a Veggi Casserole.
