Apple Days
An apple day with a difference!
01-02 October 2011
Mary Arden's Farm
Apples at Mary Arden's Farm
As our longest running event, Apple Day is well supported by visitors and traders alike and proves a real fun event where any thing goes!! Due to such popular demand we will host two Apple Days this year on October 1st and 2nd.
With the focus of the great old English apple, you can enjoy apple tasting, juicing, bobbing, apple pie making......just about any thing involving the faithful apple. Due to the time of year this even also focusses on harvest time and all the wonderful products created from it.
Why not come along to Mary Arden's Farm and enjoy some traditional music and dancing as you learn all about the English apple!
