Sunday September 30 9:00 am to 12:00 pm
Join us for our annual fruit pressing. Pick your apples, pears or crabapples and then come down and make some delicious fruit juice! Click here to access the sign-up form. Kids are welcome. Please leave your dogs at home. Bring LOTS of containers to hold your juice. Clean plastic beverage containers, a big pot, a 5 gallon water jug, all make great containers for transporting your juice back to your home. Juice can be frozen or canned for long term storage.
Sign-up Instructions:
1. Book a 1/2 hour time slot by filling in your name and contact info on any of the blank time slots.
*Each press (takes 1/2 hour) fits up to three 18 gallon totes of apples and squeezes more than 25 litres of juice. You may need to book additional pressing times if you have more than a press load of apples. If you have less than a press load, let us know and we'll look for someone else who has a half press load.
2. Store your fruit in a cool place until pressing day and occasionally check your fruit for bad apples.
3. Bring your apples, juice jugs, and a cash donation (suggested $20) to the fruit pressing location (TBD) at the time you booked. We’ll do our best to stay on schedule.
