Tuesday 1st November

On Tuesday 1st November we are having a talk on Perry making by Tom Oliver of Olivers cider and perry.  He is bringing along samples for us to try and the Committee are providing nibbles.  Everyone welcome - visitors £2.00
Tom says
“It’s amazing to think that before the ‘Truck Act’ of 1887, nearly all Herefordshire farms had apple and pear orchards and would have partly paid their workforce in cider and perry. If you made the best cider, you got the best workers.
Cider and Perry have moved with the times and now are not just the drink of the landed gentry and country folk.
Sophisticated, well blended ciders and perries can be perfect partners with a wide variety of dishes, including these delicious mussels”
