Volunteer Workday: Community Orchard – Browick Road Recreation Ground, 11th May

We are creating a community orchard of local heritage variety fruit trees on an area of neglected land to the east side of the Browick Road Recreation Ground, all the work being carried out by an enthusiastic group of volunteers.

The area has two sections – the upper (opposite Gunton Road) and the larger lower section. The upper section had been planted with 12 apple trees along with wildflowers and native daffodils last winter season.  In the lower area we plan to create various areas: an activity area, raised beds and of course more fruit trees.

Volunteer sessions are normally on every other Saturday, 10am to 12 noon with a tea break at 11.  Everyone is welcome to come and join in and be part of the project or come and see the progress.
