With heatwaves gone but summer still burning away without any rain, the young orchard at Wigmore Park was in need of a good watering as the trees were showing signs of stress, that is until we arrived in force to help Konni from the Luton Orchards project give them all a good drink.

After running to meet in the orchard our team of six went back and forth giving each of the 60+ trees twenty litres of water to get them through the dry spell. when they were all done Konni kindly refreshed us with some of last year's apple juice, made from apples collected from all over Luton!

Tonight was the first session for Andy who put in a strong run and made a good effort on the task, a very welcome new addition to the team, well done Andy!
