Community Orchard volunteer session, Saturday 8th February 2020 10.30am

The Community Orchard fruit trees need more winter pruning and a fresh layer of mulch. 

We'll meet on Saturday 8th February, 10.30am - 12.30pm, to continue the work started on 11th January. Please come along to help - no previous experience necessary. Rendezvous at the south end of Ladywell Fields, Bourneville Road entrance. Boots and old clothes recommended. Under 16s only with close supervision. Please bring your own (sharp) secateurs if you have them, but some will also be available to borrow. It is best to prune in dry weather, so if it is a very wet day we are likely to postpone. Email ladywellfields@yahoo.co.uk if interested, so we can gauge numbers and let you know if the weather causes plans to change.

Hope to see you there.

Mark the date:  There will also be pear grafting session on 22nd February where we will graft the scions collected in January on to new root stocks.
