Great to be out despite the rain this morning helping The Friends of Nunroyd Park plant their orchard. We were in charge of soft fruit and planted rhubarb, loganberry and gooseberry. 2 blackcurrants, a josterberry and another gooseberry left for the eco warriors from Yeadon Westfield Infant School to plant next week. Pear, apple, plum & cherry tree all planted too.Photos from Incredible Edible Aireborough's postwww.facebook.com

Lovely gardening session on Sunday at the refurbished garden at The Station Pub. Our edible garden is looking good too. Still plenty of chard. Kale and herbs to pick. Just look out for our "ready to pick now" signs and help yourselves. Pick the big leaves from the bottom of their stalks for the chard & kale and cut the tops of the herbs. A pair of scissors would be useful but sharp fingernails will do!Photos from Incredible Edible Aireborough's postwww.facebook.com

We'll be gardening again at the Station Pub from 11 am tomorrow morning. We need to get our veg beds ready for winter. Do come along and join us- All welcome whatever your gardening experience. There may well be greens to pick too

A couple of us visited our site on Queensway sports fields to do a little weeding & new volunteer Chris put lots more raspberry canes in. It's looking good. There's still some purple gooseberries to pick if you can spot them. There'll be autumn raspberries soon too.
