We've just wrapped up our season of apple pressing, and we're excited to share the achievements with you. This year, we've been all over the local map, literally! We made stops at 15 locations, with 4 schools and 11 lively community hubs joining in on the fun.
Tons of Apples Turned into pints of Juice
Can you imagine the high mount Eryri is? Now times that by four, That's how high 5,463kg of apples would be if they were all piled on top of one another! This tour, we pressed about five and a half tonnes of these crunchy delights, transforming them into a staggering 3,045 litres of apple juice. If we were to pour this juice into pints, we'd have 5,358, that's over 9,200 coke cans worth of juice!
A Toast to Our Volunteer Heroes
Our heartfelt thanks go out to the backbone of our pressing tour - the volunteers. Jonathan and Lewis, their dedication has been the core of our success. Also essential part of the team, Bob, who zipped from venue to venue on his bike and Jayne, a BIG THANK YOU for their help.
Round of applause to Community Spirits
