Downham Apple Day returns in October with music, food and apple crushing

The event, which takes place on Sunday, October 4th between 12:30pm and 16:30pm in Downham, serves as a great way of turning your unwanted apples into juice that can be used straightaway or frozen in plastic bottles for the future.

Following the success of Downham’s first Apple Day, the organisers are inviting people to come to the Village Hall again this year to bring their apples for crushing into apple juice to take away.
