What’s On

The 10th Potton Apple Day will be held on Sunday 26th September 2021 at St Mary’s Church Field, Hatley Road from 12 pm until 3 pm.
This annual celebration of apples and orchards is a fun, informative, family day out.  Please collect up your spare apples as these are the backbone of Potton Apple Juice (which is sold at the Four Seasons Markets).  Bring them on the day to the Apple Amnesty area.
It is planned to have apple juice and cider on sale on the day, along with food and live music, displays of Bedfordshire applies and advice about orchards, an apple identification service and fruit trees for sale.
Watch out for details locally and on social media.  Like Potton Apple Day Facebook page for event details as they’re confirmed.
