Our Story
Wild Harvest Social Enterprise Ltd was formed in 2016 to create employment through setting up local tree nurseries to supply our Mini Orchards project and employing people to manage the Mini Orchard sites.
What we do.
Mini Orchard Project
Our goal is to plant – install over one million Mini Orchards throughout the UK providing employment for over 5000 people.
How it Works:
Their job will be to grow the Mini Orchards in the nursery and manage the sites where the Mini Orchards are planted / installed. This hands on approach provides a healthy working environment as well as end product and a sense of ownership and achievement.
Fruit Farm Project
Wild Harvest Social Enterprise Ltd has acquired two 50 acre sites in Inverclyde and Renfewshire for the first of 500 fruit tree farms to be created throughout in the UK. The fruit orchards will supply fruit trees to the Wild Harvest Mini Orchard Project.
Each fruit orchard will create 10 full time, long term, well paid jobs. The collective sites will create over 5000 jobs in the supply and services chain throughout the Mini Orchard Project.
Wild Harvest will soon be launching its Plant a Million Trees initiative backed by local government and companies.
This project will provide over 5,000 jobs at different locations throughout Scotland. The project will get underway in August 2020.
Tree Planting & Flood Prevention:
- Planting trees could be the answer to providing a long term solution to flooding.
- Trees act as a natural barrier to floods by providing root systems that absorb excess water created by flooding.
- Trees can be planted on riverbanks to add strength to the riverbanks and create a natural barrier to flooding.
Wild Harvest can supply, plant and maintain trees for flood prevention schemes. We recommend that fruit trees could be used as natural flood defence barriers as they would also create a natural environment for wildlife. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
Tree Replacement Service:
Wild Harvest also offers a tree replacement service for utility companies, land developers/agents, architects, and construction companies.
Carbon Capture:
Each tree planted can absorb 48Ib [ 21.7724kg ] of carbon. The Wild Harvest Mini Orchards and other tree planting projects will plant and maintain over one million trees capturing over 10 million tons of lethal carbons that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere.
Our planting projects will also create over 5000 new, long term, well paid jobs throughout the UK.
Wild Harvest Community Allotment Project
Wild Harvest Social Enterprise is setting up a project to offer free allotments to the unemployed. Each allotment plot will come with the following:
- Hut
- Basic Tools
- Seeds
- Onsite advise
The project is primarily set up to help the unemployed gain a sense of purpose, as well as help, provide free fresh fruit and veg for their families.
Who can apply for employment with Wild Harvest?
Anyone!
Funding:
We are seeking funders who help us set up the tree nurseries and purchase Mini Orchards in order for us to achieve our goals.
Each Mini Orchard comes with a sponsors plaque with the sponsors details on it.
The Sponsors Plaque will be located at the Mini Orchard site.
Great local / national PR for participating companies.
