Big Dig Open Volunteering Day 16th March

We'll be holding an Open Volunteering Day on Saturday 16th March as part of The Big Dig.

From 12-2.30 pm we'll be busy working on the orchard, so do come along to lend a hand. Jobs we will be doing include:
  • Pruning the trees
  • barrowing manure and mulching around the trees
  • preparing for planting soft fruit
  • planting trees we grafted last year

Wear sturdy shoes! If you have gardening gloves, bring them - though we do have some.


Give Debbie a call on 07719 625 725 when you arrive so I can greet you and show you were the orchard is on the allotment site.

Location information: Seymour Grove allotments, off Warwick Court M16 0JG
 
How to get to the orchard:
Buses:15 (Stagecoach/Arriva) runs past Warwick Court (ask for Kings Road Primary).
84 runs along Seymour Grove, alight at Kings Road and its a 5 minute walk to the allotment site.

Metrolink: You can travel to Firswood station and its a 5 minute walk to the allotment site.
