It was great to attend the @climateactionleeds.bsky.social Networking session on Tuesday evening. We had some fascinating conversations about how communities can take climate action while being inclusive and welcoming to everyone.

Another lovely Apple Day this Sunday, organised by the fantastic Back to Front Harehills group.

At Fruit Works we love Apple Days for their ability to connect people and land, and getting people out into the orchards that are all around us, having fun and meeting each other.
