Fruit cage planting.

Over the past few weeks we have gradually dug over 60% of our new fruit cage, and transplanted our existing fruit bushes into it. The fruit cage is now home to 6 blackcurrant bushes, one gooseberry bush, several clumps of tayberries, and about 50 autumn fruiting raspberry canes. With these we hope to be able to supply some fruit later this season.

We plan to finish the other 40% of the cage early next year. Many thanks to Nikki for leading this project, and to all our volunteers who helped with the digging and planting.
