Orchard Membership

We love our orchard site in its combination of fruit trees, fruit bushes, other plants, water and wildlife areas - even though compared to a commercial orchard it can seem a bit of a jungle! However, this can take a lot of looking after so membership of our group entails taking on a share of the work, but also having the opportunity for shared learning (a 'green gym' type approach if you will!) If you would like to join the orchard, then we ask that you first come along and participate in one of our (usually) Sunday work sessions in order to meet some of the other members and to find out if what it involves is right for you - check the Orchard Events Diary on our home page to find out forthcoming dates.

Membership of the orchard itself for the period Sept 1 September 2023 - 31 August 2024 is £19.50 per year for an individual (or £35 for "household" membership for a couple/family), or pro-rata should you join later in the orchard year. There is also an additional £10 one-off new membership fee. Further information below (membership form will be emailed to you after attending a work session):

Wiki Registration

If you are already a member of the orchard, then you are recommended to complete Wiki Registration so you can edit the Wiki. (Please use your real name when signing up so others in the orchard know who you are when you make edits or comments!)

You do not need to be a member to view the site, but registering will let you sign in and contribute by editing and adding content in order to enrich the overall site in a collaborative way. You should already have been sent a Wiki joining password which will allow you to sign up immediately. If you cannot find this, you can still use the above button to request joining (an email will be sent to the MRCO Wiki administrator).
