Fruit trees

The community orchard was started with a gift of trees from Transition Chesterfield with additional trees added by the Borough Council. The holes for the trees were dug by staff from the Borough Council who also supplied soil. They were helped by children from Old Hall Junior School who enjoyed freshly pressed apple juice whilst there.

A team of volunteers from Transition Chesterfield and the adjacent allotments regularly prune the trees.
