We went back to Holgate Community Orchard to continue digging out the roots, starting to move down the plot towards the beck. Some of us also start to bag the existing root mountain from our previous efforts. It was good to see our progress in the light again. Egg found a massive root she was determined to excavate and her hole began to resemble an archaeological dig. David joined us for the last half of the task after spotting us on his Sunday run.

Holgate Allotment Community Orchard and Apiary
Transforming an overgrown and unused allotment plot into an orchard and public space for the local community to enjoy.

Holgate Allotment Association are a volunteer group of allotment holders who try to make Holgate Allotments a great place to socialise and grow veg. We have an allotment plot on the boundary of our site which is unused and completely overgrown but which we think will make a lovely orchard and wildlife area with seating for the local community to enjoy. Clearing the site will be a massive task, but it's one we want to embark on this Autumn. Can you help?
