Join Robbi Ben & Alfie and help juice fru it we've either picked or collected around Brighto n/Sussex. This fruit would have gone to waste but with your help it will be turned into delicious ju ices and ciders. Learn hands on about small scale juice and cider production\, some of which we'll s ell on the day to the passing public.
\n \nNo experience is necessary\, and new volunteers ve ry welcome. Our juicing sessions are fun\, messy a nd fast paced\, as we need to make sure the fruit is pressed before it spoils. Please note this is a very physical activity\, with some heavy lifting (around 15kg) of crates and stretching\, as top of equipment is 1.6m.
\n \nIMPORTANT< /strong>: Please do not register to take part if y ou are ill or have had any sickness or diarrhoea i n the previous 14 days.
\n \nWasp season in the UK generally starts around April and finishes around mid October. We therefore advise that anyo ne with an allergy to wasp stings does not help ou t during this period.
\n \nUnfortunately\, due to the fast pace of these sessions and the siz e and nature of some of the equipment involved\, t his session is not suitable for under 16’s. We're keen to buy more suitable equipment to run family- friendly juicing sessions - so please contact us w ith any funding opportunities you think we could a pply for.
\n \nPlease register for this task\, so we know who is coming and only regi ster if you are sure you can come.
