Thank you to our wonderful tree guardians at our Tree Care Session, braving the rain – true hero’s of the fruit trees!

Wonderful to see new and regular volunteers with big smiles

Today we cleaned the grass / weeds from under the trees to reduce competition and then mulched with wood chips / grass clippings to create a barrier from moisture and too keep the heat in the ground while it breaks down, putting the carbon back into the ground. We looked for disease and damage to the trees (under 18s will need to be accompanied by a parent / guardian).

Tree Care Sessions run every first Sunday of the month 10am-12noon. We meet outside Sure Start Centre, Lynchet Close and we will wait for 10 mins for everyone to arrive.

Next session: 6th November 2022

Come and join us for our next tree guardian volunteer session. Email us through our contact page here to let us know your coming.
