The C2C public inquiry has lurched into its final week and the finishing tape is, at long last, wobbling into sight at the Belfry in Cambourne…

The C2C Inquiry has been grimly eye opening. Tens of thousands in public funds buy hired “experts”. Most communities are without the help we’ve had from charities. If Coton Orchard cannot be saved when the scheme makes no ecological, transport or fiscal sense, what hope is there for anywhere else?

When is an orchard not an orchard 🍎🌳❓Apparently, when it stands in the path of a GCP busway 🚍💰 www.facebook.com/share/p/16tb...

While plotting a new wildflower meadow in Coton Orchard today, OTV Ben found a Rosy Knot-horn moth (Oncocera semirubella). Nationally Scarce B and of conservation concern. Luckily its larval food plants – bird’s-foot trefoil & clover – are thriving here 🔍🐝 Reason 263 to #SaveCotonOrchard 🌳🚌❌

A moment in Coton…

What a day❗️Huge thanks to the organisers of the Coton Village Fete for all their hard work and to everyone who joined in the fun 🌻🐝 With proceeds shared with @cambridgeppf.bsky.social fighting fund #CotonAction

Collecting fruit for the village fête today, a volunteer recalled donning a picking bag here as a child. 50 years on, these same trees still yield their harvest but if the bonkers busway cuts through, our children may never taste their gift 🍎

Watched Lois and Ben release the moths from their traps in Coton Orchard… what a disgrace it would be if our County Council are given the power to throw this place under a busway 🔍 🐝

Thank you Derry & Ylana for showing us around @darwincollegecam.bsky.social garden & orchard today 🍏🐝

The Council plan to route a busway off road across Madingley Hill won’t just fell hundreds of trees, severe hedgerows and nature corridors but also gut farms as one fourth generation farmer tells us, this may be their last harvest if a TWAO is granted #NoFarmsNoFood ✏️ www.change.org/p/save-the-g...

A lovely morning in Coton Orchard with CLO for our @savebutterflies.bsky.social #BigButterflyCount 2025 ⏱️ Sunshine, showers… 133 butterflies across 12 species. Gatekeepers the clear winner. We started with a moth trap with Camb Moth Group, finds still being identified 🔍🐝 #SaveCotonOrchard

You can’t offset the roots of a century. You can’t recreate the hum of a traditional orchard. No metric of ‘net gain’ makes this expendable. Surely this is something worth saving❓ #SaveCotonOrchard ✏️ www.change.org/p/save-the-g...
