Malvern Hills National Landscape
We’ve been out this week helping to plant 80 fruit trees (traditional varieties) across 4 different orchards in the National Landscape. Most of these orchards are old and provide a great habitat for nature but they were badly in need of some new life to fill the gaps where trees used to be.
Thank you for the help provided by the Greenspace Team Worcestershire County Council and children from Ledbury Primary School. Some beautiful miniature Hereford cattle were keen to see what was going on at on at one of the sites.
Funding from #farminginprotectedlandscapes so thank you Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).

The reason that the rocks of the Malvern Hills are called the Malvernian Complex, is because they are complex, and like a fruit salad, you’re never quite sure what you’ll come across next. However, all this geological diversity is laid out, and explained, in Tank Quarry on land looked after by the #malvernhillstrust. And to put it all in the bigger picture we’ve been making videos with the #earthheritagetrust to simplify the complex. Will let you know when they are ready!
