In the charity's own words
Brogdale Collections work to secure the long term, sustainable future of the National Fruit Collection as a living Collection at Brogdale. We do this by opening the orchards to the public where they can view the various fruits through the seasons, learn the historical importance of the Collection and the significant scientific work being carried out to keep the Collection alive.
