      <description>The next phase of a housing development in Birmingham.  The four trees on the right need felling to allow for construction of a car park.  Working closely with Ecologists, a Badger sett has been closed off and it's inhabitants moved to a bespoke new home adjacent to the development.</description>

      <title>Stump Grinding</title>
      <link>https://www.blythevalley.co.uk/Stump-grinding</link>
      <description>Stump grinding is the most efficient method of removing unwanted tree stumps.  The stumps are ground into chips which can then be removed to allow reinstatement of the area.  We have a range of grinders that can usually access most places.</description>

  Blog posts are a great way to get recognised within your community and share your voice. Here are the top 10 reasons you should love writing blog posts.

                &#xD;
&lt;/h3&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;img src="//dd-cdn.multiscreensite.com/blog/blog_post_image.png" alt="" title=""/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    Anyone can make one:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  For better or worse, anyone can write a blog post about anything they want. Everyone has a voice and the best voices will rise to the top. 
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    The writer can show their personality:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  In blog posts, the writer has more leeway to add in their voice and personality than other types of writing.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    Blogs are a great form of mass communication:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  You can help people, learn new things, entertain your audience— the possibilities are endless and amazing. Blogging opens up all of these to a very wide audience.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    You can make money:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  Get the right blog going and you can make a lot of money through advertising and sponsored posts.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    It allows people to craft better thoughts:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  Instead of reading haphazard, uneducated Facebook statuses, it’s much better to see people’s thought process in a well-written blog post.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    You can establish a community:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  Blogging allows you to connect with other individuals who share the same interests. Sharing ideas and opinions within your community helps establish yourself as a thought leader.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    Good for SEO:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  Keeping content on your site fresh and relevant, you can use your blog to boost the search engine ranking (SEO) of your site and your business.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    It brings people back to your site:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  If your blog is strong enough and updated regularly, people will come back looking for more and bring traffic back to your site as well.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    It’s free:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  It costs you a grand total of zero dollars to post to the blog, so if you have something to say, there’s nothing to stop you.
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
    You can establish yourself as a thought leader:
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    
                    
  A blog is a great place for your original thoughts, and it can be a wonderful way to show off your individuality. If people like your ideas, you can become a thought leader in your industry!
  
                    &#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;

      <link>https://www.blythevalley.co.uk/Tree-Planting</link>
      <description>Here are the guys planting semi-mature trees on a site in Birmingham.  The team are using an underground anchoring system to secure the tree in place rather than the traditional stakes and ties.  Irrigation tubes are also installed to facilitate watering (essential in a challenging environment such as this).</description>
      <content:encoded>&lt;h3&gt;&#xD;
  
                  
  It’s official, I have a blog and I know how to use it.

                    I have finally decided to take the plunge and add a blog to my site. I have always wanted an easy way to share information with visitors and I’m super excited to start this journey. Keep coming back to my site and check for updates right here on the blog.
