My fruit trees arrived yesterday and I didn't have the energy to get them out of the box. Just opened them up and my goodness, they are very good trees. Packed well, reasonably mature trees. I'll be ordering from them for my fruit tree needs in the future.

Kinda tempted to get a Pawpaw tree and see if it'll take in the food forest I'm creating. Definitely getting fruiting dogwood next year.

This year's trees and bushes to plant in the next week or so...

Asian Pear - Hosui
Pear - Red Bartlett
Nectarine - Harco
Sour Cherry - Pandy
Mulberry - Red nr 2

Bushes:
Saskatoon Berries - Northline, Sleyt
Haskap - Honeybee
Blackberry - Thornless Evergreen

Things are starting to grow

Steve & Ben spend a day a week knocking doors on their estate offering to plant free fruit trees in folks' gardens. Today, they are out with fruit bushes looking for new homes.

They've had a brilliant response, and it's opened up many wonderful connections and conversations about traditional food crops amongst their diverse community.

Residents will have fresh fruit on their doorstep at zero cost. The group also offer workshops in thrifty growing and caring for fruit trees.

It's a direct response to the #costoflivingcrisis that also improves climate & biodiversity.

Here's what Steve says: "The most direct way of addressing food poverty is getting together with friends, family and community and growing it. It's surprisingly easy, it starts with a conversation over a brew. Be that person who puts the kettle on and invites folk round." ❤️

Delighted we could support Community Roots Permaculture Project with a Transition Together seed-funding grant, supported by @tnlcommunityfund.

Orchard, forest, a fruit tree for every home: communities planting trees for the future - Transition Together

Creating a new forest may seem a big ambition for a community group. In his latest blog, Transition Together’s Rob Hopkins talks to some of the Transition’s movements most prolific tree planters about how and why they’re seeking to make their communities shadier, leafier and fruitier.

Planting Fruit Bushes

Poundland sells cheap fruit bushes, and if you pick the ones with leaves on, they tend to grow fairly well and make a nice hedge type thing. If you pick the ones with no leaves on... they're dead, you're buying a dead plant... They're also not a pound each, but never mind.
