The South Woodford Society will be hosting a community gardening day on 24 September.
“In the last edition of the South Woodford Village Gazette, it was discussed how ‘green exercise’ is beneficial to both physical health and mental health. Our gardening day at the community orchard – which will start at 11am – will be an ideal opportunity to have a go,” said a spokesperson.
Located on the corner of Primrose Road and Mulberry Way, the orchard was created by the South Woodford Society in February 2021. The group is now keen to install a rainwater harvesting system on the site. “After attending a workshop at the Ray Park Walled Garden, we have started to discuss a design, which could involve fixing guttering to the railings on the viaduct, allowing us to collect rainwater before it enters the drains. As usual with all our projects, we would value community input, so do not hesitate to contact us.”
