they are copying us..but that's alright..
we also got a plot - a strip of good soil within queeen's park itself.
there are just SO many apple, pear and damson fruit trees in this area..rather than throw away the surplus people leave them out in easy to carry crates for whoever..if they are unable to harvest, that's when our local coop gets in..we'll harvest.

Todmorden incredible edibles exists for many years and as far as I know they are pioneers in the UK with this initiative. A friend of mine recently told me that this movement is growing across Northwest England and as Elbie showed it is around her area too. This is awesome, people want to change and they are making it happen.
never heard of todmorden before.Quote:
