        The Earley Community Orchard, Laurel Park, Earley, Reading, was planned and is maintained by the
        Earley Community Orchard Group, with support from the 
Maiden Erlegh Residents Association (MERA) and the 
Earley Environmental Group (EEG).
        
        
        First conceived in 2014, it took a couple of years planning and negotiating with the local
        authority (Wokingham Borough Council) for a suitable site.
