Community Fruit Pressing - Sign up, pick your fruit and make juice! - Sept 28 & 29th

Annual Rossland Community Fruit Pressing - Sign up for a pressing time, bring your apples, and jugs or buckets for your juice.  
Sign up for a 30 minute time slot. Our motorized press can  press three 18 gallon totes of apples and produce about 25 litres of juice.   You can can or freeze your juice.  Or make it into hard cider.  
Our press operator does the pressing with one member of your family assisting.   
Suggested donation is $20 per time slot. Funds will be used to pay for operation and maintenance of the press.
Location: 888 Esling in Lower Rossland (in the Chinese Gardens at the top of the Wagon Road). Home of Larry Doell & Audrey Gerein.
Juicy apples and windfalls work best.  Pears and crab apples can also be pressed.
 
Don't have apples?  Ask a neighbour if you can help with picking their trees or check out the  Rossland Harvest Rescue Facebook page to find people who have apples that need picking.  Or use the Rossland's Fruitfinder app.  And you can find links to all this info here https://linktr.ee/rosslandfruit
