Last weekend (22nd Feb) we celebrated our Orchard that we planted last year, wishing the trees well for the year ahead. Thanks should go out to our hard working, dedicated volunteers Sima, Andrew and Katy who have looked after the Orchard so well this past year, mainly by scything the bracken to ensure the trees don’t get smothered. This in turn will increase the biodiversity of the site, as well as providing a good opportunity to learn scything techniques. We will have plenty more opportunities for folk to come to Three Hares to learn scything this year, so if you are interested, drop us an email or keep a look out here for dates.

Meanwhile, here are a few pictures taken by our volunteer Katy Lonsdale of the Wassail, and we hope that you can join in with the Wassail next year!
