Make your own juice from locally grown apples using our hand-cranked press!

Twice a day in the farm barn, roll up your sleeves and help chop, mash, press and bottle locally-grown apples. Learn about the different varieties of apples and take home a bottle of fresh, tasty juice! 

During this fun, interactive workshop suitable for ages 5+, you’ll be guided through the process of cleaning, crushing, pressing, bottling, pasteurising and labelling.
