Welcome
to the Vale of Evesham- an area of outstanding
national beauty and probably the most prolific fruit
and vegetable growing area in the country.
Although
appealing at any time of the year, the area is at its
most spectacular in the Spring when the sight of blossoming
fruit trees transform the landscape into a riot of vivid
colour and promises of plentiful summertime harvests.
Blossom
time in the Vale is a short season- dependent on climate,
usually between late March and early May. The blossom
that can be seen first is plum, followed 10-14 days
later by apple.

The
Vale of Evesham Spring Blossom Trail has
been carefully planned with the assistance of the Automobile
Association to guide the visitor through the Vale along
routes which give the most scenic and advantageous views
of the blossom at its best. The trail follows some of
the prettiest roads and lanes in the area with a wealth
of pubs and cafes along the route for the thirsty and
hungry traveller.
A
leaflet showing full details and a route map is available
at the Tourist Information Centres at Evesham, Droitwich Spa, Pershore
and Broadway.
