E40 Passion for growing fruit with Hilary Dodson
This was recorded live at the Harrogate flower show
The group was formed in November 1995 by a group of like-minded people with a passion for fruit growing.\xa0 Our membership has since grown to over 400 in number with a wide range of expertise from novice to professional\xa0 growers.\xa0 Geographically the group covers a large area, along with our members in Yorkshire, our membership spreads as far as Scotland, west Wales, northern France and the Netherlands!
The aims of the group are:
- to promote knowledge of growing fruit of all varieties, particularly those suitable for growing in the north of England
- to raise awareness of fruit growing through exhibition of fruits at shows and other meetings open to the public
- to register old fruit varieties and orchards of the North and advise on orchard care and maintenance
- to take part in research projects concerning the growing of fruit
