Community Apple Day
We had a wonderful day at our Community Apple Day at Maltravers Orchard, a combined effort by our group and the Littlehampton Community Growers group.
We included the informative Weald to Waves banner sharing information on the 100 mile nature corridor connecting nature across Sussex, and was a pleasure to welcome Maralyn May, the Littlehampton Town Council Mayor join in.
