During the next few months we hope to plant 8 orchards within Hull in and around church grounds. Why orchards ? Well they are great low cost, low maintainance food growers, that last years and years. They also help attract insects to pollonate other vegtables planted near them as their nectar is sweet and high up.
So far we have planted one orchard of 14 trees at Bricknell Methodist Church (post to follow) with more to come at St Martins CoE and the Boulevard Hope Grows Garden, but we are talking to a number of other venues too. If you would like to help plant or even make tea on planting days do let us know.
