“Whitwell Community orchard has been designed on traditional lines following a proposal from Whitwell Parish Council's Environmental group. To provide maximum benefit for nature, the orchard includes a perennial hay meadow to attract more pollinators; hedgerows with many different native species to provide food and shelter for creatures such as dormice, hedgehogs and birds; as well as many old fruit varieties grafted onto vigorous rootstock. These will become large, fruitful and long lived trees, which will endure in the landscape, storing carbon and becoming full of character, providing habitat features as they age. We have used 950 bare root whips to create a 200m plus species rich native hedgerow around the site that we are planting up as a Traditional Orchard for the people and wildlife in Whitwell. The new hedge will help provide shelter from the wind and it’s flowers, fruit and nesting sites will encourage lots of insects, birds and other wildlife to the area. Some of the Rowan, oak and field maple will be selected to grow into hedgerow trees to provide additional habitat, nesting sites and song posts for birds. ”

We have planted two oak, one beech, one walnut, a holly, two alder, several rowan, field maple, silver birch, wild cherry, about 50 trees in all. Unfortunately some sheep got into the field and had a good nibble at the young trees shortly after planting back in January but I think they have all survived and we have now fenced the woodland area off so this can’t happen again. We look forward to watching the trees grow and to encouraging a growing range of wildlife into our field. ”

“We secured a tree pack from the Woodland trust and after nurturing the trees for the summer last year we were able to plant the saplings a mix of different native deciduous trees, out in the local Primary School's Field of Dreams. The project joined with the Village Preschool who also planted a number of trees in the "forest school" area of the field. A wonderful session planting with the pre-schoolers who really enjoyed digging and planting!”

“We have several trees in our garden, fruiting and ornamental which ave been added since we moved to our home. We had space for two more fruit trees so they were planted winter 2022. We planted a crab apple to help with pollination and that has been potted for one year while we chose a spot for it. We now have planted it in its final position and have a lovely display of blossom. The pear was a sad looking purchase from a diy store and although no blossom this year it is looking far more healthy in its spot in the garden.”

“When we bought it the western garden of our house in Whaley Bridge was a derelict nursery which had seen no work since 1957 and comprised tumbled down glass houses, potting sheds, a boiler house and privy under a closed canopy of overgrown Laurel, and dense ivy as well as three self set oak trees less than five metres from the house. Slash and burn was our only option followed by a complete replant, primarily with small native hedgerow tress and a few taller specimens.”

“When we bought our home back in 2011 our back garden was a barren expense of lawn with not a single flower, shrub or tree. I wanted to bring back scent, life and wildlife into it. So over the past decade I have been filling (or overfilling) the garden with plants including as many trees as I can cram into the relatively small space. Some are very new, but others are starting to mature and to see the blossom on the fruit trees in spring, and to collect the apples and cherries is a wonderful feeling. Plus getting shouted at by a myriad of tiny birds hidden in the tree branches is a perfect example of how bringing back trees also helps to bring back native wildlife too.”
