Heritage Hedgerow

 
Wednesday's mission was to plant a key part of the orchard - the six trees to create "Heritage Hedgerow".   These trees are either native to Lancashire or have been widely grown in Lancashire for many years.  Proctor's Seedling from the Longridge area and Scotch Bridget  will prove to be two popular varieties in the not too distant future here at Broughton.

Other areas planted today were "The Courts" "The Fruit Bank" and "Plum Pocket."

"Pie  Corner" and "The Core" remain to be planted.
