All but one of the trees grafted during the workshop in March 2010 have now been planted in the top half of the orchard. We're waiting delivery of the seven trees we ordered from a specialist nursery - which should be dispatched soon. Three of these need planting as bush trees and four will go along the fence and be grown as cordon trees.
We have some duplicate trees (where we grafted more than one of the variety) and these trees are going to be put in pots and offered for sale at our plant sale in May.
Other news: the shed will be going up next weekend, and once this is done there will be tools for people to use stored in the shed.
February Work Days
We are having more work days in February to get trees planted. As always, they are weather dependant (frozen ground or pouring rain don't work very well!), so always call to check if in any doubt!
We've planted some of the trees, but there are still more to go in the ground and we really only have February (and early March) to do it.
We'll be there most Saturdays* until the trees are planted - from 11-2 pm. You don't need to commit to the whole time, an hour would be great!
Call 07960 713 018 for more information.
* Not during OTAGS seed potato weekend (19-20th Feb).
