Grant of £2,167 awarded in 2021
The Community Orchard at Clifton near Deddington is one of a dozen orchard projects funded through TOE’s Local Environment Fund.
Volunteers from Deddington Environment Network have planted 15 heritage fruit and nut trees and hundreds of spring bulbs on a site donated by the Deddington Parish Council. Watch this short video filmed during the community planting day in October 2021.
As well as the trees themselves, the grant awarded to Deddington Parish Council included training to equip the volunteers with the knowledge and skills to care for the trees as they grow.
