Out + About in Exwick & St Thomas

We have been sharing conversations with lots of people including visitors to the St Thomas Festival, Exwick Harvest Lunch & Trews Weir Allotments social gathering. This has involved taking the map, the orchard box, apple pressing and the Orchard Pollinator game out and about. Lots of people have asked how they can get involved in finding out more & planting with their families. People have also fed in ideas and local knowledge about the site and what should be planting including some snippets of local history esp. in Exwick where people are keen to see orchard planting re-introduced to Exwick Mill Field in line with a long history of orchards in the area. Here are some pictures of events. Thanks to all the people who helped out with running the stall. There were no images from Exwick Harvest Lunch but a comment from local organiser Emma Welton: Flow added a wonderful element to our very local community event. It was brilliant to see your beautiful map, see people talking with you and getting excited.
