What an amazing transformation at this new estate in Southampton! The planting of the orchard and wildflower garden is a unique community project initiated by residents. Work included building compost areas, cultivating the ground, and preparing the areas for planting. Property Manager Debra Keyte said: “It’s a great community here, everyone came together to plant the orchard, and it has been a wonderful opportunity for residents to get to know their neighbours.”  #Community #propertymanagement
