London Orchard Festival 2012

Ever sampled a Merton Wonder apple, made your own apple juice or wondered what the nearest orchard in London to you is?  Find out at The London Orchard festival; a free event to celebrate London Orchard heritage on Sunday 7th October 2012, 10.30am - 7pm at Camley Street Natural Park, King's Cross.

We are organising the Festival with our friends at The London Wildlife Trust to form part of Common Ground's Apple Day festivities to celebrate apples, orchards and local distinctiveness.

Come along to pick up fruitful tips on how to grow the perfect apples and take away a tree to plant. There will also be an exhibition of fruit that has been harvested throughout the capital by volunteers, a juice bar with a home-made pedal-powered fruit crusher, a cider making and tasting stall run by the Campaign For Real Ale, games and activities for children, apple-themed food and drink and live acoustic music.
