Welcome to

Green Appleton

  
There's an awful lot going on right now! First of all there's the Apple Pressing on Saturday 5th Oct at Southlawn, then our Review Meeting in the Village Hall on the 7th Ocober, at 7:30pm. Details of these events are given in the Advertiser.
After that there is a new venture for us - we are holding our first Repair Cafe on 2nd November between 10am and 1pm in the Village Hall. See the Repair Cafe section of this site for an online form to let us know about repairs the you'd like done. Or come along and have a coffee/tea and a piece of cake and see what's going on.

Our two most recent projects are what this website is all about. The first is a time-lapse project, where we are setting up photo stations in Besselsleigh Woods for people to take photos from and to upload them onto this website, so that they can be made into time-lapse videos. We have recently won National Lottery Funding for this.

We are also using iNaturalist to get everyone involved in recording the biodiversity of our area. People can take photos of flora and fauna, and use the app to identify them and place then on the map. It develops individual's knowledge as well as creating an overall picture of our environment.
