The Barnet Fc walking football team teamed up with
OneStonegrove to bring some positivity to local children
Many whose parents cannot afford fresh fruits and have no idea sadly how fruits grow
And so we got our shovels and put on our wellies ….

Edgware residents and community groups came together to support a local initiative, grabbing their shovels to help plant a range of fruit trees at a residential development.

Over 30 volunteers took part in the planting day on Lacey Drive, adding trees to an unused open space outside of residents’ homes.which will allow fresh produce to grow throughout the coming months. Seven different variations of fruit trees were planted, and each type will be fruiting at different times throughout the growing season.
