After Saturday’s wash out a few volunteers made the most of the sunny evening to put some woodchip around the orchard trees, to help suppress the grass and weeds, and keep in moisture. Nice to see some apples and pears coming too! @ProjectOrchard

🌦️ We are hoping rain will ease in morning so WILL go ahead with volunteer day, but keep eye out for messages. 🌳Please join us 10am (meet top of Park) to help mulch the orchard trees with wood chip. Bring shovel/gardenbags/wheelbarrow if you have one. Many hands make light work!

Watering team out this morning in the sunshine ☀️ Each tree in the community orchard has had a good drink but if you can take a bottle to the park when you’re out and about and give a tree a quick water it would be really helpful. @ProjectOrchard

💧As the weather has been so dry, we need a bit of help watering the community orchard. It has been done a couple of times but if anyone is available with a watering can at 9am tomorrow morning (Saturday 3rd June) please meet at the Community Orchard at the top of the park 👍

A big thank you to @WWFCymru for funding our new litter pickers and hoops from @Keep_Wales_Tidy as part of our #EarthHour grant to get more volunteers active in improving the park. More litter picking was one of the requests made by participants at our Pizza in the park event
