With so much fruit growing around Wimbledon, it\u2019s a shame to see it wasted. Abundance Wimbledon collects surplus fruit and makes sure it gets used to make jam, juice, puddings etc. \u00a0Some goes to local charities, providing for the homeless and elderly, e.g. Merton & Morden Guild, the Faith in Action Drop-In Centre and Merton Vision.<\/p>\n
So if there is more fruit in your garden than you are likely to need, then please get in touch. \u00a0You can borrow a fruit picking pole to reach the top of your tree or ask if a fruit picking team can come and help you pick.<\/p>\n
Last year, Abundance Wimbledon gathered more than 1600 kilos of fruit and we thank everyone who so kindly contributed. To donate your fruit this year, help with jam making or anything else, please contact abundancewimbledon@gmail.com<\/a> or tel. Joyce 8946 3750\/Juliet 8946 2514. \u00a0See our website www.abundancewimbledon.com<\/a><\/p>\n Finally, don\u2019t forget to come to ABUNDANCE FRUIT DAY<\/strong> on Saturday 19\u00a0September, 11am \u2013 2pm at St Mark\u2019s Church garden (behind Wimbledon Library). Come buy homemade jam, chutneys, cakes, ultra-fresh juice from the fruit press, enjoy the music and games. \u00a0Entry is FREE. \u00a0So please put it in your diary!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With so much fruit growing around Wimbledon, it\u2019s a shame to see it wasted.
