🍂🍏🍎 Autumn Celebration Apple Day, Sat 11th Oct
🍏 The fruit trees are heavy with an incredible harvest and it’s almost time to meet together for all kinds of apple processing fun! Our Autumn Celebration Apple Day is October 11th this year from 12 – 6pm.
🍎 Autumn Celebration is a fantastic, free community-run event and is open to the public this year. Bring along friends and neighbours as the hands-on apple pressing, juicing and bobbing is so much fun for all ages; particularly the apple juice tasting!
🍻 As well as free, fresh apple juice (bring your own bottle if you’d like to take some home), we will have our colourful bar open with a delicious selection of quality wine, pale ale (Drop Bear Beer), IPA, larger (Purity) and soft drinks (Belvoir). There will be farm cider too of course!
🍰 The brilliant Chacma are going to be frying up vada (lentil fritters, VG and GF), there will be home-made cakes for sale and we are thinking it’s an opportunity to bring back good old fashioned toffee apples!! (take care with those fillings everyone!)
🎁 Young apprentice apple-pressers and bobbers will be rewarded with lucky dip prizes and certificates.
🚐 CCF hope to improve access to the farm for local people so we are offering Free Shuttle Bus trips in and out of Radford Semele village. Do spread the news on this, so folks know they have the opportunity to leave their car at home.
🚏 The Shuttle Bus will run from Radford Semele Community Hall, Leam View, Southam Rd-Church Lane and Bloxham Way at 11.30am/12 noon /12.30pm returning to all stops at 5pm/5.30pm/6pm.
🔥🍏 See you all in October by the fireside to enjoy time together and our amazing apples!
