Have you checked out the Springlake apple and pear orchards yet?
Meander through retained majestic gums amongst the native plantings used to regenerate this riparian zone, take out the footy in the kickabout space or familiarise yourself with the Apple & Pear Orchard.
A unique feature to Springlake is the addition of an apple and pear community orchard. We have 4 varieties of both pears and apples. Apples – Pink Lady, Royal Gala, Golden Delicious and Granny Smith. Pears – Williams, Corella, Packham’s Triumph and Buerre Bosc.
Whilst the trees are starting to bear fruit this year, the first crops aren’t edible. We hope to see them flourish through producing fruit the first half of 2019. We are looking for volunteers or a community group to take care of the orchards, if you are interested, please get in touch via email: community@springlake.com.au
