WORKING PARTY 19 OCTOBER

We need a Working Party to give the site a tidy up before the winter (Wednesday 19  October from 10.00am)

·        Cut down and dig out the 2 George Cave apple trees which have canker. We are going to replace them with a variety of dessert apple which will store into the winter.
·        Cut back the hedging on the A25 where it obscures the sight line when crossing over
·        Weed the tree sites
·        Cut back the hedging along the Eastern boundary + bramble and nettle
·        General bramble removal along grass margins and outside the Orchard onto the A25
·        Weed the wood chipped area in front of the laurel hedge.
·        Review and possibly strengthen the tree guard stakes which in some cases are beginning to rot
 
There should still be plenty of Herefordshire Russets to pick. These will store well up to Christmas
 
ps: coffee/bix provided for everyone
