Once the juicing events were all over, we spent a morning putting our mobile juicer to bed and tidied the Orchard House in readiness for the winter Wassail and our orchard maintenance events. We also counted the stock for the Wassail. The winter clean-up ended with a Chickpea Curry, a Gammon & Cabbage Soup and a chance to meet with Chris the new long-term, immersive volunteer staying at Speckled Wood, next to Swan Barn Orchard House. Thank you, Holly, Yvonne and Monique. And, of course thank you National Trust for allowing us to be based at your wonderful orchard space.
