HomeBeautiful GardensAn orchard in the street The clever people at Wayward Plants transformed an empty site in south London into an urban orchard for a summer. The Union Street Orchard and community garden was designed by Heather Ring of Wayward Plants as part of the London Festival of Architecture. It also had full-time residents in a zero-carbon pod called the LivingARK, a pavilion called The Nest and a skip converted into a table tennis table. Though the orchard no longer exists, when it was dismantled in autumn 2010, all the trees were given to local estates and other community gardens, leaving a lasting legacy from a super-cool project to south Londoners. You can find out more about Wayward Plants here, and there is more information on the Union Street orchard on its own site as well.
