Workshops, markets, apple day celebrations & more
We have a year-round calendar of events across Leeds and Bradford, so you can be sure to find us near you.
Each year we run a series of Pay-As-You-Feel workshops to teach winter and summer fruit tree pruning and fruit tree propagation (“grafting”). Dates and venues for each training workshop are listed below and on our Eventbrite page. Places are limited, so please book in advance to reserve your spot.
We also host Apple Day celebrations in the autumn, and you can find us at local farmers’ markets throughout the year.
Got an idea for an event you’d like us to be a part of? We’d love to hear about it; get in touch to let us know!
