Banbury's Urban Orchard

Banbury’s Urban Orchard
Banbury Town Council in collaboration with local community groups Banbury Trees and others, have planted an Urban Orchard, as a contribution to the nationwide project to commemorate the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III.
 
We have planted 60 fruit trees in parks and on routes around Banbury, which are  a mixture of Apples, Pears and others edible seasonal fruits. Our aim is to increase tree cover, increasing biodiversity for the benefit of wildlife and the environment, and provide free access to delicious seasonal fruit. We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make this happen.

 

 

Caring for your tree
• As Tree Wardens you will support your tree in its first and second year, with guidance from the Ranger Team
• Water your tree regularly in dry weather
• Check its health
• Weed around your tree
• Check stakes and ties
• Top up its mulch layer in winter
• Report problems to the Rangers.

This is your chance to participate in Banbury Town Council's largest tree planting project, as well as help your community cultivate a greener future for Banbury town.
