Reviving the Old Apple and Pear Varieties in the Southern Marches

MAN is made up of its members, without you we would not be able to continue with all the work we do. With your support we are able to:

  • Increase awareness, popularity and planting of traditional apples, especially those local to the Welsh Marches region
  • Continue research into DNA analysis of these varieties, creating a complete and coherent map important for future generations to access
  • By establishing and maintaining our museum orchards housing hundreds of these varieties, ensuring that none become extinct
  • By re-discovering lost varieties, mainly from attending shows and identifying samples from the public. These are then propagated and properly identified and living examples can be established and managed in our orchards
  • By organising events that celebrate and encourage the revival of interest in traditional fruit varieties, and heighten awareness of all aspects of pomology
  • Offer advice on these varieties and their suitability for different situations

For just a £10 annual subscription you will receive:

  • An Autumn newsletter – Apples and Pears – full of interesting news and information
  • A Spring News sheet with all of the Summer events listed
  • A reduction in cost for our courses – grafting, pruning, etc. and social events
  • Invitation to our AGM and to vote on MAN matters, and many other networking events for members
  • Access to our libraries, expert information and contacts
  • And of course you will be supporting us in attending shows, maintaining our orchards, old varieties, research, DNA and all of the other work we do…
