5 volunteers came out to Kemerton on  a perfect sunny day to prune /, cut back and tidy new damson and other plum trees which had been overcome with weeds and grass and sprouted endless rogue  branches. 

We had to loosen the tree guards to access the overgrowth and then re-connect,  all of which we managed to complete  with all of them manicured and hopefully they will go on to produce lots of plums .
