Maintaining COPSE Spaces

In February COPSE did the rounds of our Orchard Spaces, pruning Lions Green Orchard with meadow-maker Hilary Neilson; Swan Barn Farm with National Trust Wednesday Team plus Wassail revellers; Watts Gallery with the fantastic Chris Sharples Gardening Team; Puttenham’s Jubilee and Eashing Orchards (on our tod); and WBC’s Queensway Community Orchard Space, with Ruth and the Wayne family. While there are pots for planting trees, there is limited funding for pruning and looking after established Orchard-spaces, so linking up other Groups and funding streams, such as our Wayward Wassail fund allows us to maintain the spaces we help to create!
