Rhododendron (Rhododendron ponticum) is an invasive
species to Wales. Y Dref Werdd will be clearing the invasive species from the
premises of Llechwedd a local business. Y Dref Werdd is a Lottery funded
environmental community project in the Bro Ffestiniog area. One of many
projects Y Dref Werdd has is the ‘Rhododendron Clearance and Control project’
which intends on clearing areas where Rhododendron is present. Our aim is to
free the area from this invasive species by cutting the branches using bow saws
and loppers. This is a ‘one-off’ event
between 5th – 9th December. For further
