    What's buzzing or flying near you 2025 ?

    Yes, I know they are on the big reserves near Glastonbury, but those are inaccessible to me without a car. I was hoping they would spread out into the ordinary farmland nearer to me.

    Cordon Apple Trees, Site ?

    Given what you know now, would you plant Apples on a similar site again? Afraid we do not have any other free locations in our small garden.
