Join The Orchard Project to help wash, chop and press this year’s apple harvest and create our delicious London Dry Cider and London Apple Juice.
This year our mission is to save a whopping 13 tonnes of apples and we would love for you to join us on our quest to save apples, support community orchards and make delicious drinks!
It will be a fun, informative and sociable day where you can meet a brilliant bunch of like-minded people and learn how to make craft cider & juice, using the traditional rack and cloth method. Plus, those who stay for the whole day get a free cider for your hard work!

In 2016 we launched an Urban Harvesting, Juice and Cider enterprise in the heart of London. We partner with the community orchards we work with to help them harvest their fruit and encourage people from London to donate their unwanted garden apples all to be made into our Local Fox Cider.
The cider is then shared with those that donate their fruit, or the equivalent value is given back to the orchard to spend on training, tools or expertise. Find out more here https://www.theorchardproject.org.uk/drinks/.
