Crushing the apples ready for pressing ...

Crush and Press Your Own Apples!

Pouring the Pomace into the press ...

Make the most of your windfalls! Turn them into fresh apple juice or make your own cider!

Starting to screw down the press ...

Bring your apples over, then use our NEW electic crusher and large or small press, and then take the juice home.

Fresh apple juice !

We have had a huge variety of different people making all different amounts of apple juice from any type of apple.  Some people bring one or two buckets of apples - producing around one gallon of juice (4 - 5 litres). Some villages get together and bring trailer loads of apples - producing over 100 gallons of juice at a time!

Friendly information and advice on cider making is given, and the juice making is supervised at all times.

A fun, useful and interesting activity. Team building groups welcome.
