Taking a swig of freshly pressed apple juice, TCP Tollesbury

“Juice Your Fruit with TCP” — A Success

TCP held 7 small scale juicing sessions between August and November so that excess windfall apples and pears that couldn’t be eaten were pressed into delicious juice before they rotted on the ground or in storage.

All sessions were busy and we usually had a few apples “up our sleeves” in case no-one turned up.

A family from Kelvedon so enjoyed the process that 4 of us went with our equipment to meet half a class of year 6’s and their parents in one of their back gardens.

All in all, a very sociable fun experiment which also brought £110 of donations into our cofferes to help us continue our projects.
