At the end of September, using more of the Green Farm apples we did a juicing with the fantastic Warlingham Forest Schoolers, run by Pam and Sarah. The forest school acquired this former sports club from Surrey County Council, with one of our final Jubilee-orchards planted in March 2023. This was our fourth event with the group and we were impressed at how the space had evolved: working from an upcycled shipping container; on the former car-park; next to the rewilded sports pitch. Several fruit trees planted in 2023 had to be replaced in 2024, but all seemed healthy today.

Green Farm apples went down well at Churt CHaPS (Churt Horticultural and Produce Society), annual produce show with Claire and Susan pressing apples to make juice for members and residents at the end of the show. The following week COPSE purchased an electric mill, which dramatically sped-up the juicing process. It was used at the end of the Swan Barn apple harvest where 3-ton sacks of apples were picked and hopefully next year will speed-up this and other Community-pressing events. Also, we linked-up with Hairy Pigs of Wood Street Common, who took all of our apple scrats for their pigs.
We hope to support Paul’s team with processing apples themselves from the 80+ trees at Green Farm.
