We are preparing the farm for the coming season of cultivation. We meet at the Community Farm or the Community Orchard in Poundbury on Sunday afternoons at around 2pm
and also on
Wednesday mornings at 10.30
We have started preparing areas for planting later in the year, and are clearing a space to bring over a brassica cage from the orchard. We will start planting salad and carrots in the polytunnel. The apple pruning is continuing along with the soft fruit. We will set up some new compost areas. Email us if you'd like to come along.
We will meet on Saturday, 3rd February at 11.
We will be checking for signs of spring, pruning the hedges and chopping back the eternal brambles.
Green drinks
We will meet at Tom Brown's, 47 High East St on Tuesday 20th February at 7.30.
Come and have a chat with like-minded people.

...particularly with the racket this horn and drum produced
Bring your broken items and see if our volunteers can fix them, and save them from landfill. Usually held on the last Saturday in the month - check their facebook page for venue!
