KEEN gardeners are being offered the chance to do their bit to protect Worcestershire’s orchard heritage.
Worcestershire County Council, in partnership with Walcot Organic Nursery, is providing a selection of organic fruit trees including five varieties of apples, two varieties of pears and two varieties of plums, from just £14.50 until March 15.
Wade Muggleton, senior community greenspace officer, said: “This is a great opportunity for people to grow their own little bit of Worcestershire heritage.
“There are some great varieties of fruit trees in the county and it would be a shame if we lost any of them.”
