Our last Changemakers meeting focused on how we communicate climate and nature change through community events.
With the support of the Government’s Trees for Climate Land Acquisition Fund, South Hams District Council have purchased a 65-acre site to be transformed into a community woodland, orchard, and market garden.
Often the Sustainable South Hams compost mentors will come out to communities to share the love for compost, but last week, a group of compost enthusiasts from Dartmouth and Totnes did a tour around several of the fabulous community sites that exist in the South Hams.
Our goal is to create and restore habitats within the Yealm Catchment, working with professional partners such as Westcountry Rivers Trust, Devon Wildlife Trust, Woodland Trust, AONB, Dartmoor Parks Authority, National Trust.
Community orchard harvest and Apple Day, including apple pressing. We also hold a Wassail in January and story telling in spring.
