*Workshops for September 2026* 

Will be organised between September 21st to October 9th 2026. Please note – Workshops will take place one or two people per workshop.  

•  – Apple Picking, Pressing and Producing.
•  – Introduction to Tree Grafting.

Workshops will be on set days throughout September/early October providing information on picking, pressing and processing the apples. We have a large annual crop within Pink Apple Orchard and varying varieties at another orchard where we have a larger variety of apples. On the day you will learn all the processes involved to produce your own apple juice and you will be able to take home 60 litres of organic juice included in the price. This can be drunk, bottled, pasteurised, frozen or made into cider. Information leaflets will be offered on both pasteurising and fermenting which can be emailed to you. You will have the opportunity to taste both the apple juice and cider from last years crop but also the apple juice you press on the day as the delicious juice begins to flow! You are welcome to bring your own clean (hand picked) apples with to add to the press if you wish. This is a fun, relaxed, informative and hands on workshop. 

N.B. We ask that you bring your own (plastic) containers with you to take home your apple juice. We suggest a mix of 5 litre bottles, 20 litre containers or 20 fermentation buckets with lids.
