The Apple Cause.
The Apple Cause is a community-based, membership-based, not-for-profit organisation in Northamptonshire, dedicated to understanding the history and present state of the midland counties orchards and, just as importantly, conserving community orchards as a declining resource, both for humans as a green space and a source for good local foods, and for the wildlife that they shelter.
