ABUNDANCE TREE PLANTING On the vernal equinox (Friday 20th March) we planted 8 fruit trees with the kids of Sharrow junior school, aided by the help of Holly, the Sharrow tree warden. We planted 3 pears and 5 apples in Mount Pleasant Park, overviewed by the school in the heart of Sharrow. We made a sign for the trees and the kids made individual signs for the specific names of the trees. These will go in on the 28th March, when there is a grand opening of the park; the park has been going though development by the council, and so our fruit trees make a nice addition to the refurbished city park. Together we pre-dug the holes for the kids to make it a easier for them, we added mushroom compost and volcanic rock dust, we prepared the stake to hold them in place.we planted then mulched with wood chip.
