Bottles of Othona Apple Juice with labels showing apple picking in the orchard

If you’ve never tried one of these weeks you may not realise how special they are. Ideal for practical people who like to lend a hand and do something worthwhile.

Sharing jobs round the house and grounds we all get a real sense of achievement and camaraderie – working hard (up to 6 hours a day) but enjoying ourselves too with plenty of laughs and diversions.

We aim to vary the jobs to suit all abilities, both indoors and outdoors. A major focus this time is likely to be harvesting our apples and producing hundreds of bottles of lovely pasteurised juice.
