UPDATED: Remarkable Rangers: Apple Harvest Weekends

The harvest has come early! Join the Ranger team to collect this year's crop.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Our orchards are home to well over 100 varieties of apples. Come along and join the Ranger team as they collect this year's crop.

After last year's bumper crop and the very hot weather this summer, the Ranger team have been waiting to see what this year's harvest will be like.

The apples in our orchards have ripened early, so the harvest will take place across the first two weekends of October.
