Bradwell Community Orchard: Work in the orchard
http://bradwellcommunityorchard.blogspot.com/2014/07/work-in-orchard.html
Sunday, 6 July 2014. Work in the orchard. Our regular work parties continue, usually on the second Sunday of the month. In May, our scheduled Sunday morning work party was postponed due to heavy rain - amazingly the first time we have ever had to do this! The following week gave us great weather, and we raked up grass following Julian's complete strim of the orchard. We used it over cardboard to mulch the shelter belt hedge. 2016 - Working Party. Meet Michlow Orchard; 10:00am to 12:00am.

Bradwell Community Orchard: Apple Day - October 2014
http://bradwellcommunityorchard.blogspot.com/2014/09/apple-day-october-2014.html
Wednesday, 10 September 2014. Apple Day - October 2014. We’re really sad to say that we won’t be holding an Apple Day celebration this year. After four years’ hard work, we were looking forward to a bumper harvest in the autumn when the fruit ripened, and the opportunity to share nature’s bounty with the village. However, all the apples have been stripped from the Community Orchard – every single apple from every single tree. 2016 - Working Party. Meet Michlow Orchard; 10:00am to 12:00am.
