Orchard Volunteering

Why not try your hand at volunteering.
If you have an hour or two to spare on Saturday morning and you’d like to help out with a little light work come along to one of our working days, see calendar. There is always plenty to do and we depend on volunteers to keep the orchard going. Its a great way to get some exercise, fresh air, get to meet other local residents, meet up with/or make new friends. Sometimes there is tea and cakes provided, whats not to like!!
Also if you would like to become a member of the website to join in with conversations and hear about the latest news email us and we'll send you login details. Thanks.
