The Hyde Park Community Orchard project in Tameside, Manchester, has produced a film telling the story of how local people have been involved in the creation of a fantastic resource.
The new facilities in the orchard will be launched on Wednesday July 11 at 1.30pm. Features include an entrance sculpture and wildlife trail, outdoor classroom, wildflower meadow, soft fruits, information boards as well as seats and a banqueting-style picnic table.
The film was made by Boz Heyward and Phil Korbel.
A group of local supporters has been formed to help organise community activities in the orchard – please contact hydeparkorchard@gmail.com if you are interested in getting involved.
