WOT2Grow Community Orchard As we come to end of our first year at the orchard it is time to reflect on the orchard and what it is all about. It is YOUR Orchard – the whole reason for a group of us coming together to get funding was to enable the local people in the area to establish an orchard. The benefits of the orchard are for all, some people will learn
new skills in
looking after plants and trees Others will
try fruits they have
never tasted Children will benefit from learning about growing fruit, tasting it and understanding why it is good for them. As a team we are only co-ordinating the activities needed to get the orchard established. Anyone can be involved as it is your orchard – the team are just helping out like many others who have worked at the orchard but things don't happen without some form of organisation! We are lucky in having members who can help out but others support us by paying their membership fee, £25 to join and a small annual fee thereafter, which enables us to pay for the things not covered by the initial grant. All are welcome whether they are members or not! Join YOUR community Orchard by calling one of the team or e-mail Check us out at www.wot2grow.co.uk Liz Atkinson (680045), Paul Sayer (680451), Derek Harbour (680676), Sue and Mike Sanderson (688080), Graham Collier (680127), Julia Stirman (01608 686776) |
