Join Robbi Ben & Nick and help juice frui t we've either picked or collected around Brighton /Sussex. This fruit would have gone to waste but w ith your help it will be turned into delicious jui ces and ciders. Learn hands on about small scale j uice and cider production\, some of which we'll se ll on the day to the passing public.
\n \nN o experience is necessary\, and new volunteers ver y welcome. Our juicing sessions are fun\, messy an d fast paced\, as we need to make sure the fruit i s 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: Please do not register to take part if yo u are ill or have had any sickness or diarrhoea in the previous 14 days.
\n \nWasp season in the UK generally starts around April and finishes around mid October. We therefore advise that anyon e with an allergy to wasp stings does not help out during this period.
\n \nUnfortunately\, d ue to the fast pace of these sessions and the size and nature of some of the equipment involved\, th is session is not suitable for under 16’s. We're k een to buy more suitable equipment to run family-f riendly juicing sessions - so please contact us wi th any funding opportunities you think we could ap ply for.
\n \nPlease register for t his task\, so we know who is coming and only regis ter if you are sure you can come.
