Welcome to Green Appleton




We are a local green group, aiming to enhance biodiversity in our area, encourage awareness of nature and promote sustainable living.

    

Photography Competition!

With so much beauty around us in nature at the moment, we'd like you to take a photo and send it to us here: greenappleton2021@gmail. com. There will be a prize and the winner/s will have their photo put on our website.

Here are the choices for your photo/s (the flora and fauna we might expect to see at this time of year): Bluebells, Wild Garlic, Cuckoos, Swifts, Cockchafer Beetles, Hawthorn blossom, Butterflies, Solitary Bees, and Hoverflies. Some of these will be very difficult to photograph - but we know we have some budding photographers out there. The challenge is on! Open to all.

Your deadline is 31st May 2025.

Dates for your diary

5th May - village VE Day Celebrations. Green Appleton are having a stall on the theme "Make Do and Mend". Come and have a look!
31st May - the next Repair Cafe. Bring your items for repair, or come and see us, and maybe stop for coffee and cake!
We are also looking for repairers, and general helpers. Could you get involved? Contact us at greenappleton2021@gmail.com
We want to conserve and restore nature within Appleton, Eaton and Besselsleigh, tackle global environmental challenges and maximise the benefits we get from nature, all of which can be summed up as:
'Think globally, act locally' for nature
