Lockleaze Community Orchard Work Party

Join us as we support Lockleaze Community Orchard to regenerate their orchard. the brambles have become a little bit overwhelming so we will be helping them over winter to bring the space back into good use, ensuring great harvests for years to come!

This work party really does need a big input from people, so even if you can only spare half and hour, please do come along. We would love to see you.

And if you have any tools or gloves, for this work party, please do bring them, although we will have them for people who don’t!!
