High summer in the orchard



Helpers in the orchard on Sunday. The crew picked 3lb blackcurrants, 7lb redcurrants and 12lb whitecurrants. And the ragwort was certainly attracting caterpillars. The amount of apples seems very variable this year - some trees have plenty, others almost none. Next month, Bradwell Gala takes place on Saturday 5 August - we hope to see you on the field. Our next working party is therefore one week later than would normally be the case - it'll be on Sunday 20 August.
