Kings Orchard

Can you get involved in the King’s Orchard planting scheme? 

Kennington Community Council is preparing to bid to get 16 fruit trees to be planted across two sites (8 per site) and needs your help. It has identified three potential sites in Kennington on which to plant these mini-orchards and now wants to assess the level of support for each site from residents. 

Site 1: Rectory Way Play – Green space, near Play park 

site 2: Bybrook flats – Green space surrounding them 

Site 3: Rylands Road – Green space, near Play area

Trees will be planted in December/January and are likely to need weekly watering from late spring through summer in 2025. Can you help with the planting? 

Can you join a rota for the watering? If so, please drop an email to Clerk@kenningtoncc.gov.uk to give your name. If your offer relates to only one of the sites, please indicate which one.
