Farm days
Things are still growing and need tending, and there is lots of grass to cut and compost.
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
There is lots of grass to cut and rake, and compost to be made, at the farm and in the orchard. Come with shears or a scythe if you have them. And it will soon be time to start picking apples.
The site is large and it is easy to socially distance. Email us if you'd like to come along.
