We had lots of fun planting with Sixth Form students from Swanhurst School in Kings Heath last week. We planted 10 fruit trees - 4 apples, 3 pears and 3 plums. Many thanks to @biforuob for their support in organising this event.
Yesterday Gael, our Senior Technician at FACE captured these lovely photos!
