New orchard planted in Honeybourne Allotments – A Fruitful Partnership!
Thank you to all the allotment holders and residents who helped plant 15 fruit trees at Honeybourne Allotments on Saturday 1st February. The trees, a mix of local apple and plum varieties, were provided by the Coronation Living Heritage Fund through Worcestershire County Council Countryside Service.
The trees are to be maintained by the plot holders. The fruit produced in the orchard will be a valuable source of locally grown produce for the community. These trees will supply shade and habitat for animals, store carbon dioxide, improve air quality, and contribute to climate change mitigation.
