Agronomist Jonathon Harrington and vet Barney Sampson lead a walk through David and Catherine James’s cider orchards. See how the trees are managed and the apples harvested to make the cider. The fruit is purchased by Bulmers and Gaymers for their premium brands, some of which are available for tasting! The trees are fertilised by the bees, which produce delicious honey. Look inside the beehives, and learn how honey is made. We will also see crops of peas and wheat together with an impressive range of farm machinery. Also see events 182, 230, 276, 322

This is a visit to a real working farm and is suitable for anyone interested in learning more about food and farming. Families are welcome, children must be supervised at all times. Coaches will return to the festival site in time for events starting at 1pm.
