The Community Orchard

The orchard is being made ready for its spring flowering. 

The Parish Council have cleared the ditch (essential for water drainage from Church Street and Angle End) and cut the hedge, it looks very cared for.

The Well-brahams have planted three specialised apple trees and one pear and have organised a workshop, next week, to teach volunteers how to successfully prune the trees. It’s next Wednesday, the 12th from 10am.  If you are interested, please do come and have a look. We’re hoping for a wonderful blossom and daffodil display in the spring.

Many thanks to Nigel Start for his expert help.
