28th June 2024Orchard Park Postcode Gardener launch rescheduled to Tuesday 9th July

The launch event at the HOPE Allotment in Sir Henry Cooper Park, due to take place earlier this month was postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. The event will introduce a new ‘Postcode Gardener’ (John Pickles from EMS) to Orchard Park.
As Postcode Gardener, John will oversee a two-and-a-half-year project with EMS Yorkshire which aims to increase biodiversity in Orchard Park.
An effort to ‘wild the ward’ will see nature brought to 50 new spots locally through the installation of planters and bird boxes, planting of bushes and trees, and the creation of mini meadow areas for wildlife habitats. He will work alongside a number of stakeholders including Sirius Academy North, Hull City Council, Humberside Police, Rewilding Youth and many other schools, clubs, faith organisations and community groups.
Come along to the launch on Tues 9th July, drop in any time between 11am-7pm (official launch at 1pm) at HOPE allotment, Henry Cooper Park, Thorpepark Road, HU6 9ES
They are actively recruiting volunteers, so if you or someone you know might be interested, please contact John Pickles via john@emsyorkshire.co.uk
