At last, after more than a decade of campaigning the Irvine Road Community Orchard is finally taking shape. It’s been a long, hard fight and we didn’t manage to save all of the existing orchard, but the remaining 60% is now set to become the new community orchard and wildlife site we’ve always wanted.
If you can, please come along to the open day and have a look around. At the moment the builders are still very much in evidence as the new houses are being built, but the orchard is taking shape and we will soon be looking for members of the local community and any volunteers from further afield who are interested in getting involved.
