Project update
The Orchards project ran from 2006 to 2007 to 2009, to conserve and bring into sustainable management traditional orchards in 6 Leader+ funded areas: Hereford Rivers; Somerset Levels & Moors; Teinbridge; North West Devon; Mid Kent, and Cumbria Fells & Dales.
Much of this work remains relevant, so we have made the material freely available in this archive for future use. Other work on local and sustainable food systems continues to be promoted through the Local Action on Food network.
