Apple Day
Saturday 20th October
Do you know that apples float because they are 25% air? Or that in Ancient Greece tossing an apple to a girl was a proposal of marriage and catching it was a response of ‘yes’? If you want to learn more fascinating facts about apples then come to the Garden for Apple Day.
You’ll be able to:
… taste some of the unusual apple varieties grown in the Garden
… sample and buy Helmsley Walled garden’s own apple juices
… find out about training and pruning apple trees
…see our apples being turned into juice
… follow a family friendly apple trail and try bobbing for apples
We have over one hundred apple trees here, including a collection of Yorkshire varieties. So come and celebrate all things apple with us on National Apple Day. Normal admission charges apply.
