Orchard Groundcare: An apple tree for Christmas

An apple tree for Christmas

Harbour & Jones, the imaginative London based catering and hospitality services company, came up with a great idea for corporate Christmas presents.

Instead of the usual hamper they bought each of their clients an apple tree, which we will plant for them in Somerset.

All together there will be some 40 trees which will be part of our programme of restoration for Somerset orchards.

We think this is a great idea - and so much more rewarding than socks!

Orchard Groundcare

Would you like to see your orchard glowing with health, the trees laden with fruit and the bees buzzing? Would you like to have your apples made into juice for you and your friends to enjoy? Would you like to plant a new orchard, or would you like to see an income from the fruit your orchard produces?

Orchard Groundcare can help with all of these things.

We are passionate about orchards, and their place in the landscape. We know a lot about growing fruit and we are enthusiastic about helping other people. We are working, with others, to put Somerset back on the map as the centre of apple growing, with its associated wildlife and heritage.

We manage over 700 acres of orchards for their owners, which involves pruning, planting, picking, harvesting, bees, grants and general care.

Orchard Groundcare is based at Hornblotton in Somerset, UK.

If you would like to talk to us about your orchard, please give us a call on 01963 240581 or email neil@orchardgroundcare.co.uk
