Apple Day has become a regular fixture in the GKG calendar. Held usually on a Sunday in mid-October, very often on the same weekend as the last Farmers' Market it represents the culmination of our year - and a time to have some fun.

Actually we borrowed the idea of an apple-pressing event from our neighbours in Combrook.  By way of Jim Blenkinsop and his magnificent steam engine which drives the scratter, which pulps the apples which provide the 'cheeses' for the apple press itself, copious quantities of apple juice have made for  some fairly scrumptious cider too. We'd particularly like to  thank Combrook folk, Jim and  Hazel and Peter Bridgewater for their consistent help and advice with our efforts.
