​FAQs

What is the menu?

We will only be publishing a menu closer to the time as it will depend on what we can source locally and what is in season. The food will be vegetarian with vegan options, and please get in touch with any dietary requirements. 

What are my transport/parking options for getting to and from the event?

We do have parking but please try and share lifts if possible as parking is limited. If you would like to leave early, please let us know by emailing as we will ensure you are not blocked in. 

What can/should I bring into the event?

Please do not bring dogs. However, do bring a bottle (or two!) and a blanket. Soft drinks will be provided and we will have some blankets if the weather turns chilly.

How can I contact the organiser with any questions?

Please email us: [email protected] or phone 07890032475.

Apple Day AppleImage by Freepik
Apple Day at RSPB Wildlife Garden, Flatford Mill

When: Sunday 24th September, 11-2.30pm

What: Press apples, eat apples, identify apples, paint apples.

Where: RSPB Wildlife Garden at Flatford.

Who: Anyone, especially apple eaters. 

I feel the ladder sway as the boughs bend. 
And I keep hearing from the cellar bin 
The rumbling sound 
Of load on load of apples coming in.

From After Apple Picking by Robert Frost
