Shevington Community Orchard

Shevington Community Orchard
 
Historically Shevington had many small orchards so the In Bloom team decided to recreate a Heritage Community Orchard in an open green space at the heart of the village.  
 
Shevington Community Association funded the 7 fruit trees, which consist of 2 Conferance Pears, 2 Victoria Plums and 3 Bramley Apples.
