Volunteers are an essential part of The Orchard Project enterprise and we offer the chance to be involved in every step of the process, from harvesting in one of our beautiful old community orchards to learning how to press, bottle and label the drinks.
We have no events listed yet but watch this space for our new bottling dates.

Bottling Workshops: Spring & Summer
Help us to label our 2017 vintage cider. The cider is made the traditional way from apples that would have otherwise gone to waste. It will be a good opportunity to meet new people, have fun and learn more about cider production and how we can address environmental problems such as food waste.
Hand-labelled and looking beeeautiful.
