Sunday 10th October
Kenworthy Orchard, Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Manchester
Come down to Kenworthy Orchard for an afternoon picnic, Apple Day and storytelling with Susie Oldfield. Hosted by The Orchard Project and featuring our natty contraption ‘Pedal Pedal Squish Squish’.
We’re taking bookings of four people per picnic mat but if your group is larger than four you may purchase two or more tickets. E.g. 3 adults + 3 kids = 2 Picnic Mats, so you’ll need two tickets. No need to bring your own. Our amazing storyteller, Susie Oldfield, will be ready to engage you in some fruity folk tales, splendiferous stories, murky myths and loopy legends. Choose the afternoon slot that suits you and your family best and we’ll do the entertaining.
Expect apple themed games, fun, tasting and more.

OUR WET WEATHER PLAN
A bit of light rain wont stop us. We’ll place enough picnic mats under our 3 x 6 metre gazebo, so plenty of space for all your kids but adults may want to bring a brolly!

WITH THANKS TO:
Manchester Council and their #TreeActionManchester campaign. Their support has helped us to continue the restoration of this community orchard, which feeds local people and supports our local biodiversity. Best of all it also acts as an outdoor venue for events such as these.
