Jubilee Green Orchard Community Orchard, Bridport, Dorset – October 2021

Very hard to find this orchard, as not sign posted. We did not know what we were looking for. As there was only a small amount of trees. Here we are at Jubilee Green Orchard Community Orchard, Bridport, Dorset. Have a read of the official website here. Also a map can be found here. A list of varieties as detailed on the official website is as follows. The varieties of apple tree now on site are: Adams’s Pearmain (Dessert), Allington Pippin (Culinary/Dessert), Golden Ball (Cider), Melcombe Russet (Dessert), Pomeroy of Somerset (Dessert), Rosemary Russet (Dessert), Warrior (Culinary). There is also a Medlar.

No fruit on any of the trees, apart from a very few large medlars, but that was due to the time of year visiting. Three of the trees looked as though they were probably younger than the others.
