Louise Cantlay from Edible York's Abundance Fruit Harvesting Scheme shared her knowledge of which plants and trees are presently growing in the Badger Hill Field.

Back in March 2022, local residents, Edible York volunteers, and the local Ward Councillors planted a lovely selection of 10 apple, pear and plum trees. These are now being watered and cared for by local residents.

The walk was followed up with a discussion of what other edible growing is possible on the field, and how it might be achieved. Though the field is wet and sometimes waterlogged in places there is considerable scope to encourage greater plant diversity as well as edible growing. Bill Eve from Edible York outlined what has worked well in other parts of the City also.
