On 3rd October 2015 Dundee Urban Orchard will welcome the Orchard Collective Scotland to Dundee. The Orchard Gathering will focus on the theme of Orchard Cities and the role that the creative arts can play in generating and sustaining energy for a growing orchard movement.

Examples of creative orchard projects from across the UK will be highlighted. The day will include lively presentations, creative workshops and plenty of time to discuss next steps for the Orchard Collective Scotland. The artist and co-founder of the Abundance project Anne-Marie Culhane will be giving a talk and workshop on the day. See www.amculhane.co.uk for more information about her work.

 

The Gathering includes tea/coffee and lunch. For those able to stay on, there will be an orchard themed evening meal and live entertainment from 18.00 – 21.30. 

 

Dates for the Orchard Gathering have been chosen to complement Tay Landscape Partnership's Fruit Festival events and encourage synergy across urban and rural environments. TLP events include an apple harvest at Elcho Castle Orchard on the 4th October, a picking and juicing skills sharing workshop in Errol on the 7th October, and a Fruit Festival in Bell Wood Park, Perth on the 10th October.
