Orchard Workday and Open Day - Sunday 28 June at 11.00am

At the weekend our orchard leader had a good look at both the Ladywell Fields ‘community orchard’ and Iona Orchard nature reserve.  Although both are coming on well, a lot of weeds have established around the trees.
 
So we’re organising a workday for 11.00am-2.00pm on Sunday 28 June.  We can do some pruning of plums and cherries, plus some weeding, watering and inspection for pests/disease.
 
If you are going to come along, please dress appropriately.  We have a limited supply of gloves so please bring your own and come wearing sturdy footwear and with your legs covered against the nettles, thistles and brambles that we’ll be tackling.  Please also bring your own refreshments, especially if it’s a hot day.
 
Please assemble 10.45-11.00am in the community orchard, close to the children’s play equipment in the south part (Bournville Road, Catford) end of Ladywell Fields.
