Cockington Apple Day 2015

Following the huge success of this years' Apple Day - Sunday 18th October will again promise to be a wonderful day celebrating all things ‘apple’.

Visitors will have the opportunity to buy, taste or take home a variety locally sourced delicious food and drink in addition to perusing a fantastic selection of local handmade crafts.

A range of activities will be on offer from creative crafts to traditional fete games and some more unusual apple themed challenges and visitors will be entertained by the likes of jugglers, storytellers and demonstrations.

Just under 4000 visitors attended Cockington’s 21st Apple Day in October 2014, acknowledging the orchard fruit and the variety available throughout the UK. The first Apple Day was held in October 1990 in the old Apple Market in Covent Garden, London, bringing fruit back there for the first time in 17 years. Since then the celebration has gained momentum and hundreds of events now take place across the UK.

Cockington Court Apple Day will have over 30 food and craft stalls, a range of mobile catering units – not to mention the resident artisans in the stable yard, sea change and cob barn craft studios.
