Incredible Edible Orchard

We have been awarded an Incredible Edibles Grant to plant an orchard.  This will be between the poly tunnel and dipping ponds (under construction), dwarf fruit tree varieties: apples, pears, Mirabella, plum, cherry, damson will be used.  And we plan to create a stepping stone path/trail between the trees.

On Saturday 16th May there is a working party to get the fruit trees planted.  From 12.00 midday, although some work will be started around 10.30.

Please come along and help dig, weed, plant or wheel barrow peat free compost, everyone is very welcome and the more the merrier.  Perhaps younger children can help plant up the raised beds with peas, beans, sweet peas, salad crops etc.

Really looking forward to a great day in the gardens and orchard.

Grow A Pound – Sale of items made/grown

Following on from last Fridays sale a few children have asked if we can have another sale tomorrow, Friday 24th.

The children have been told that this will be going ahead at break time and at the end of the school day. If your child wishes to participate, they can bring a small amount of money to buy the items.

Thank you very much for your support.
