On 3rd October 2015 Dundee Urban Orchard will welcome the Orchard
Collective Scotland to Dundee. The Orchard Gathering will focus on the
theme of Orchard Cities and the role that the creative arts can play
in generating and sustaining energy for a growing orchard movement.
Examples of creative orchard projects from across the UK will be
highlighted. The day will include lively presentations, creative
workshops and plenty of time to discuss next steps for the Orchard
Collective Scotland.
The Gathering includes tea/coffee and lunch. For those able to stay
on, there will be an orchard themed evening meal and live
entertainment from 18.00 – 21.30.
Dates for the Orchard Gathering have been chosen to complement Tay
Landscape Partnership’s Fruit Festival events and encourage synergy
across urban and rural environments. TLP events include an apple
harvest at Elcho Castle Orchard on the 4th October, a picking and
juicing skills sharing workshop in Errol on the 7th October, and a
Fruit Festival in Bell Wood Park, Perth on the 10th October.
