Apple Pressing 2024

Apple Pressing 2024

Article Written:

As part of our community allotment project, we held an apple pressing event to make use of our apple harvest along with other plott holders apple donations to save them from going to waste. The event brought people together of all walks of life and taught people the traditional skills of apple pressing.

Attendees of all ages had a chance to get involved in all processes from washing & chopping to using the press itself. We made over 40 litres of fresh pressed juice which was then distributed to the local community and used at our social groups the following weeks.

The apples were all harvested by our community gardening group who all worked really hard in the run up and during the event to make sure it was enjoyable for all.
