Join us on Sunday 12th October 12-4pm for our annual community and family event Apple Day at our orchard in Bowling Park Allotments. It is our celebration event involving apples, food, cake, drinks, produce and activities for children and families.
The event is run by volunteers to raise money to help with the upkeep of the community orchard and to fund future events. Bradford council have significantly increased the ground rent so we need to ensure the viability of the orchard and the biodiversity it promotes! We hope to have music and stalls as well as children's activities, hot drinks, lots of cake and apple based food to sell.
To offer help please ring 07845 239196 or email [email protected]
Parking on Bowling Park Drive BD4 7ES.
