Community orchards


The East of England Apples and Orchards Project

We are working with the East of England Apples & Orchards Project who have years of experience in this field and can help us with all aspects of starting new community orchards.

They run workshops on creating new orchards, orchard skills and offer the largest range of ready to plant local variety fruit trees in the region. 

The fruit trees they provide have been chosen to help preserve Colchester’s East Anglian heritage. Sourced from Norfolk, the trees are all heritage breeds and varieties that are native to East Anglia.
