Join Ben & Nick and help juice fruit we've either picked or collected around Brighton/S ussex. This fruit would have gone to waste but wit h your help it will be turned into delicious juice s and ciders. Learn hands on about small scale jui ce and cider production\, some of which we'll sell on the day to the passing public.
\n \nNo experience is necessary\, and new volunteers very welcome. Our juicing sessions are fun\, messy and fast paced\, as we need to make sure the fruit is pressed before it spoils. Please note this is a ve ry physical activity\, with some heavy lifting (ar ound 15kg) of crates and stretching\, as top of eq uipment is 1.6m.
\n \nIMPORTANT: Please do not register to take part if you are ill or have had any sickness or diarrhoea in t he previous 14 days.
\n \nWasp season in th e UK generally starts around April and finishes ar ound mid October. We therefore advise that anyone with an allergy to wasp stings does not help out d uring this period.
\n \nUnfortunately\, due to the fast pace of these sessions and the size a nd nature of some of the equipment involved\, this session is not suitable for under 16’s. We're kee n to buy more suitable equipment to run family-fri endly juicing sessions - so please contact us with any funding opportunities you think we could appl y for.
\n \nPlease register for thi s task\, so we know who is coming and only registe r if you are sure you can come.
