🌿 Orchard Planting Success – Friday 20th March 🌿

We had a fantastic day on Friday 20th March, with beautiful sunshine and a wonderful group of volunteers eager to get involved.

The day began with a helpful briefing from Keep Wales Tidy, who provided an overview of the planting process and guidance on how to correctly plant and care for the trees. This ensured everyone felt confident and ready to get started.

Together, we planted 15 fruit trees, including apple, cherry, and plum varieties, along with a range of bulbs such as bluebells, snowdrops, and wild garlic.

We also installed a bug hotel, which is a specially designed habitat to support insects such as bees, ladybirds, and other beneficial wildlife. These insects play a vital role in pollination and maintaining a healthy ecosystem, helping our orchard to thrive naturally.

A big thank you to everyone who came along and helped – your support is making a real difference to our green spaces 🌱

🌳 Volunteers Needed — Help Us Create a Community Orchard! 🍎🍐

Ammanford Town Council is looking for volunteers to help plant and establish a new Community Orchard as part of the Local Places for Nature – Community Orchard Package, supported by Keep Wales Tidy.

This is a wonderful opportunity to come together, learn new skills, support local biodiversity, and create something that the community can enjoy for generations to come.

We’re looking for at least five volunteers (the more the merrier!) to help with:

Planting fruit trees

Setting up the orchard area

Supporting the creation of a new nature space

Helping us care for the orchard over time

No experience is needed — just enthusiasm and suitable outdoor clothing.

Planting will take place once the trees are delivered, and the project will be completed within a month of delivery. We’ll share the confirmed date, time, and location with everyone who signs up.

By volunteering, you’ll be helping to:

Support wildlife and pollinators

Create a shared community space

Contribute to Ammanford’s biodiversity goals

Be part of a positive local environmental project

📩 Interested in helping?

Let’s work together to grow something special for Ammanford 🌱
