WoW…How lucky was we to get a visit from James Ellson for our November talk. We would very much like to thank you for coming out to see us James. James used to be a police officer, starting in London and finishing as a Detective Inspector at Moss Side in Manchester. When he left the police he started writing. After 10 years of trying, his debut novel was published in 2020 – a crime thriller called The Trail (longlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award).The sequel Cold Dawn was published in 2022.
.James lives in the Peak District with his wife and is self-sufficient in fruit and vegetables, they also keep chickens and bees. James passion is fruit trees, especially apples.At the talk you would have heard a pin drop and we were so pleased at the turn out which was incredible x James holds a whip ‘n’ tongue grafting course twice a year and welcomes anyone who is curious to learn this method of propagation.
The cost is £30 and next years dates for that are Sunday 9th March and Sunday 16th March 2025…11am to 1pm….more information on this can be found online under James Ellson whip and tongue grafting course. Many thanks again James and good luck for the future and your ever growing variety of apples.
