A Swansea Soroptimist planned, sourced and organised the planting of 25 fruit and nut trees as part of an A Rocha community Eco project in the grounds of St Paul’s Church, Sketty, Swansea. There are 9 Plums, 7 Cherries, 2 Crabapple, 2 Cobnut, 2 Medlar, 1 King of Damson, 1 Almond and a Walnut tree and the fruit will be enjoyed. 18 Blackcurrant bushes, 18 Gooseberry bushes and 100 RSPB bird friendly hedging bushes were also planted. The blossom will benefit birds, insects and the fruit will be enjoyed by all. Access and visibility from Singleton Park will improve health and well being of the local community. Planting trees is a Centenial project of Soroptimist International.
