Great Post!

These are two of my favourite photographers and that accompanying artists from different crafts are too stunning to pass up. So after essays for school, I went to the show and gallery and I got their autographs as well as a souvenir photo.

Abundance harvests trees

Abundance harvests trees across the city on industrial waste sites, roadsides, the grounds of mansions and back yards. We harvest a range of soft fruit, top fruit and nuts. Over fifty 642-383 volunteers of all ages and from many different backgrounds harvest and process the fruit. Fruit is distributed to Surestarts, community groups, community cafes and individuals across Sheffield.We receive tip-offs by word of mouth, text and email as to where to find ripe fruit trees. The 642-436 greatest journey any fruit travels from tree to mouth is five miles often by bike and trailer. We have found at least fifty varieties of apples and more than twenty varieties of pears. We give away hundreds of fruits and 642-446 lots of freshly pressed juice. Tree owners are offered the first share of fresh fruit.We make juice, cider, jams, preserves and pickles from the damaged and bruised fruit. We leave plenty for the birds and the soil. We carry Abundance through the winter by teaching people how to prune 642-642 their trees. Abundance taps into a huge public enthusiasm for and appreciation of local produce. We are rediscovering Sheffield as one big orchard.
