Fruit & Bounty
We believe, that an area that produces and provides its own food locally will be more resilient and better connected. From 2022, we ran a year-long successful project called "Fruit and Bounty" celebrating and building orchard culture and enterprise in Pembrokeshire.
Fruit & Bounty saw the launch of "Ein Coed" - a unique fruit tree propagation and sharing network open to all. We're continuing to build Ein Coed and celebrate and support orchards and fruit tree initiatives across the county.
Autumn 2023 will see the return of Fruit and Bounty's Apple Juicing tour. Click the button below to read about where to find the team!
The Fruit & Bounty Project ~ June 2022-June 2023
Fruit enterprise support
F&B supported smaller fruit-themed business and enterprises in the county to tap into the suppliers and markets of the area better, to access training and to build up their confidence and skills.
Mother Orchard Scion Networking
We have created an ongoing “scion sharing network” on Facebook so anyone can share and access varieties of fruit and nut trees they'd like to grow.
See the Ein Coed Page for more info
Events
F&B were proud to collaberate with local people, running training events to build orchard, fruit and enterprise skills and to celebrate all things fruit.
Apple Juicing
2022 saw our biggest ever community apple juicing service, visiting 16 communities over two months. We juiced 6.5 tons of apples, making thousands of letters of apple juice!
Autumn of 2023 will see a return of the Apple Juicing. See the apple juicing webpage for more info on where to catch the tour.
