Best-ever annual Apple Day at Camel CSA

First polytunnel up and running at Treraven Farm

A  gargantuan effort’s gone into completing the first polytunnel at our relocation site at Treraven Farm, Wadebridge. Lead grower Mark Norman headed a large team of volunteers who got stuck in digging trenches, constructing the frame and securing the cover.

Grateful thanks to growers Mark N, Bridget and Ann plus volunteers Andy, Becky, Bob, Charlotte, Danny, Darren, Finn, Frank, Janet, Kiefer, Mark M, Mary, Nicky, Spencer, Stepper, Stewart and Trina for a brilliant team effort.

The tunnel’s now been planted up with tomatoes and aubergines, using the lasagna method of cultivation.
