The fruit trees in the orchard would benefit from a late summer prune, which
will stimulate the trees to produce fruit next year. We have therefore planned
another work day for Saturday 24th August. Please come along to help and maybe
learn something new about tree maintenance. Rendezvous at the orchard in the
south end of Ladywell Fields, near the Bournville Road entrance. Even if it is
warm, covered shoes are a good idea as there are thistles around the trees.
Under 16s only with close supervision. Please bring your own (sharp) secateurs
if you have them, but some tools will also be available to
borrow.
Please email ladywellfields@yahoo.co.uk if
interested, so we can gauge numbers. Hope to see you there.
