Cider and Perry Trials

Update May 4th 2020

As you will already know, the 2020 Big Apple Cider and Perry Trials have been cancelled because of the current Covid-19 restrictions.

It’s not practical to try and incorporate them into the Harvestime event in October so the next Big Apple Cider and Perry Trials are now scheduled to take place on Saturday 1st May 2021.

This date is still provisional as we really don’t know what will be happening in a year’s time but, hopefully, we will be able to run the event so, if you have potential prize-winning cider or perry do keep some back for next time.

As usual, we hope to have entry details available from late January 2021.

Here’s how it works…

This weekend would have been our 30th year of running Blossomtime in Putley! An annual event to enjoy orchard blossom and taste many different ciders, perries and apple juice.

This time of year see products from last years harvest becoming ready to drink. With this in mind many craft cider makers depend on local events, tourism and hospitality business to sell there products - so they are taking a big hit from lockdown.

The nine producers who had arranged to be there this weekend are finding extra ways to make there drinks available. We have made an area on our website with all the details of the producers and how you can get there products! www.bigapple.org.uk/blossomtime-2020/ ... See MoreSee Less
