It's well dressing weekend in Malvern. Come and see our famous water celebrated by beautifully decorated fountains, spouts and wells all over the area - 49 in all! More info and maps available from visitthemalverns.org/events/… and don't forget the photo exhibition in Church Walk.
It's Earth Day - here in Malvern the town council is hosting a whole series of on-line events...from dog poo digesters to mindfulness. Join in here

If you were about to have a baby would you want to be chased across a field? It's lambing time, so keep your dog on a lead please. Watch this video to learn more.
What more can I add ? ..... Beautiful.
Time to kill? How about a book swap? Telephone boxes all over the AONB are becoming home to second hand books and information. This one is at Upper Welland - carefully restored by the local community with help from the AONB.
If you're out walking this week please do stick to the paths and be prepared to get some mud on your boots!

What do you do if your ponies eat your hedges? Make a horse moat! This is protecting a brand new hedge, which will one day be a wildlife corridor, connecting hedges on either side of it. Huge thanks to the farmer, who was supported with a grant from MHAONB.
Reduce, re-use and recycle. This old tin is going to provide luxury accommodation for slow worms on a warm sunny bank in the AONB.
Nine new field trees at Mathon Park, a partnership between the land owner and MHAONB. Look at the veteran tree in the background and just think what these could grow into. Amazing!
Are you a farmer or landowner in the Malvern Hills AONB? Here's a great opportunity to hear farmers talking about how they are getting involved in the new agri-environment schemes.

A new orchard for @bartonevents , traditional varieties, some of which hail from nearby farms and villages. Huge thanks to the enthusiastic owners who, with support from Malvern Hills AONB Unit and local orchard volunteers, have re-made a piece of living history. Cheers!
heritagefund.org.uk/funding/… - this fund is open to private and not-for-profit heritage organisations to provide a helping hand during this difficult time. If that's you why not apply?
The snow is melting but the blue skies are magical. Reflections on the lake at Earnslaw Quarry - an easy walk from town. One of the AONB's little secrets!
A 'feel good' Christmas dinner? Beef and lamb grazed on the Malvern Hills and commons, producing tasty meat and wildlife friendly landscapes.
A date for your diary! Shop local and support the amazing #ColwallOrchardGroup - guardians and care givers to our local traditional orchards and expert bakers and preservers! Plus a rare chance to feel Christmassy!
