Colwall Orchard Group

is a small charity set up to restore, promote and celebrate traditional orchards – why not join us?

What we do

Working entirely with volunteers, we

• manage the Community Orchard, our newly restored Apple Packing Shed (see report here) and other facilities at Colwall Village Garden;
• run seasonal events, such as our Apple Day and Wassail to celebrate our orchard heritage (see our events page);
• share our enthusiasm for orchards with all sorts of people through talks, walks, events and environnmental education sessions for children;
• teach people practical orchard management skills;
• encourage everyone to enjoy sustainable local orchard produce; and
• have lots of fun!
