Do not miss the opportunity to learn about the heritage with the Old Woughton Parish Council and how they benefit both local people and wildlife.
Discover more about the orchard and the diverse varieties of apples with the Mid-shires Orchard Group as they take you on an immersive tour around the Cider Orchard.
Enjoy food and live music, and support local charities and businesses.
Look out for "From Garden to Jar", a local business selling delicious homemade jams and chutneys.
Take part in themed crafts with our Outdoor Learning Team, firing an apple from our very own catapult, bird ringing (weather dependant)
and creating willow art masterpieces led by a willow weaving professional.
