An invitation from Theresa to join Meredith Park Orchard work bee on Tuesday evening:

Location: Meredith Park
When: Tuesday, August 27, 5 PM onwards

Please bring a garden fork, spade, buckets, a wheel barrel, family members and or neighbours. There will be tools available for sharing.ย 

We will do some minor weeding and application of 4โ€ of wood chips out to the NEW growth drip line of trees.

This is a critical step in maintaining the health of our orchard. Otherwise low fruiting branches might and have been removed. As well tree trunks can and have been damaged by enthusiastic Parksโ€™ staff using whipper snippers in their efforts to keep our park neat and tidy.

Meredith Park Orchard Species: apple, pear, peach, plum, cherry, jubjube, persimmon, paw paw, almond, heartnut, chestnut, pecan hazelnut, hascap and currant.ย 

Many hands make for light work and enjoyable experience, whereby we get to know one another just a bit more.ย 

Fresh & local orchard pickings are the best!ย
