The LifeCycles Fruit Tree Project team picked almost 9,000 lbs of apples this past week. We'll be sorting them all over 4 shifts on Tuesday & Friday. They'll be distributed through out the community.

We have begun processing B-grade apples into juice! Starting in October, we will be selling jars of juice through the #SouthIslandFarmHub. To receive a discount code for 10% off, register for #GoByBikeWeek and bike to Welland Orchard between September 23rd and October 6th. Log your ride to receive the discount.

#CommunitySharing Day on September 28th is our harvest party, volunteer appreciation, and outreach day all wrapped into one. Expect apple pressing, free fruit, heritage apple tasting, and more! More information is available here.

This is a great day to bike to Welland, as parking is limited, and the spots closest to Welland will be reserved for accessible parking.

Come by & see me during Go By Bike Week outreach booth at UVic on October 2nd, 9:45am-12:15pm. Learn about what we do & enjoy free samples of our new fruit juices!
