    Story

    On Sunday 4th August,12 volunteers gave over 50 hours of combined time and energy to re-cover Holly Mount Orchard’s greenhouse. Within 3 days, the brand new covering had been slashed and torn by vandals.

    After so much volunteer effort on this project - both fundraising for it originally through Bury Council’s ‘The Pitch’, and the effort involved in re-covering itself - we are not ready to give up on this project yet. But we need your help.

    Any contribution you can make - no matter how small - will go towards putting right the greenhouse damage, whether that ultimately is a fully replaced cover, or repairs and vandal proofing. Any funds raised beyond the target amount will go towards our ultimate dream: to have the greenhouse fit for purpose and to allow access for local schools.

    Please help us to continue to restore all the facets of our wonderful orchard space - for all our community to enjoy.

      Absolutely blown away by the support that we’ve received from the community so far - completely overwhelmed in fact! It’s been wonderful to be able to take something so positive away from something so senseless and destructive. One of our orchard volunteers has already completed some preliminary repairs which have at least sured up the structure and weather proofed it for during these current storms. We are also taking advice on how to vandal proof the greenhouse. The greenhouse will live to fight another day!

      Hope you get enough to do fix it. It’s a lovely place for children and adults.
