On 8 December we met at the new Community Garden in Hurst Green (behind the shops) to help planting the first apple trees in the area of ground which is going to be developed for all things EDIBLE. There is a very sturdy fence so these trees (all eaters) are going to be grown as cordons.......we will be able to watch the trees progress and learn how to manage pruning on cordons which is mostly done in the summer.
The apples chosen include a graft of Herefordshire Russet which is one that we grow very successfully at the Community Orchard.
