Lawrence Weston, Trustee in charge of the new Orchard Programme, has recently run five incredible grafting workshops in South Birmingham, after launching the project. We were joined by Minworth Action Projects at the Minworth workshops, who we recently planted a new orchard with, and continuing that work, these grafting sessions are designed to give local volunteers the knowledge they need to look after the community’s trees.

We ran workshops at Glebe Farm Library, Sheldon Country Park, and St George’s Church Minworth, where each session was well-attended by keen grafters of all ages! Let us know if you’d like us to facilitate a grafting workshop near you. Thank you to everyone who came to the sessions, and especially Frank P Matthews for sponsoring our Orchard Project, allowing these upskilling workshops to happen.
