Orchard volunteering session, 6 Jan 2024, 10.30am

Sadly, we lost a whole row of plum trees in the orchard, probably the result of the drought the previous summer. However, we now have three apple trees to replace them: a Rosemary Russet, James Grieve and Ellison's Orange.  We will plant these Saturday 6th January, 10.30am - 12.30pm, weather permitting 

Rendezvous in the orchard, by the picnic bench. Please bring your own gardening gloves, but other tools will be available to borrow.   Other potential tasks include dividing up comfrey plants, checking guards and stakes, and mulching.  Email ladywellfields@yahoo.co.uk if you are interested, so we can gauge numbers and let you know if we have to postpone in case of wet weather.
