Heard of the June drop? It's when apple trees thin out the smallest & weakest fruitlets. But sometimes nature needs a helping hand!
By thinning out to just a couple on each cluster, you reduce the chances of disease & also allow the remaining fruit to reach a decent size.
This year all who achieve an Eco-Schools Green Flag between May and July will receive exclusive resources, discounts, and offers, as a thank you for improving their community, including: 20% off and free delivery from @Natures_Voice
Despite the wet weather at RHS Tatton Show the North West In Bloom enjoyed chatting to people about the benefits of community gardening and how they can get involved too. @RHSBloom
