This planting was requested by the Friends of Acocks Green Recreation Ground (Westley Road) and will involve the local Scouts and the Friends of AGRG.

They will be planting 500 sapling trees to form a hedgerow, plus 10 fruit trees to create a community orchard, which BTFL has funded. The hedgerow will provide foraging opportunities for fruit such as berries. Local people are invited to come along and help with this positive environmental project.
