Apple Day 2015
Where: Greener Kirkcaldy’s training allotment and orchard at Ravenscraig Walled Garden.
When: Saturday 17 October
Time: 2pm – 4.30pm
Every year the humble apple is celebrated far and wide to demonstrate the rich variety of apples that we grow and cherish. In particular the day celebrates apples and their place of origin so we do not lose sight of local varieties and their importance to our heritage.
Come and join Greener Kirkcaldy in our community orchard at Ravenscraig Walled Garden for a fun packed afternoon of apple activities. As usual we’ll be pressing apples to make apple juice. We’re looking for donations of apples for this – if you’ve an apple tree and don’t know what to do with your crop – get in touch. You can also bring your own apples along and make juice from them to take home (please bring your own bottles).
As well as making apple juice you can get a tour of the orchard (all our fruit trees are Scottish and some varieties are very local), get your apples identified and learn about growing apples.
This is an open event – no need to book, just come along!
