The Farnhams' Orchard Day

We held the Farnhams' Orchard Day on Saturday September 28th in the Dell, with children's activities, apple-pressing, beekeeping, games, craft stalls and lots more. After a weeks of heavy rain the day was dry and the sun shone!


The Community Orchard in Farnham Common was created in 2011 by Burnham Beeches Rotary and we now use it as the location for an annual Orchard Day and also 'Carols on the Dell' at Christmas.

The Farnhams' Orchard Day was started in 2021 as an event to bring the community together following the covid restrictions and it is now an annual event at the end of September

Among the stalls were local crafts, wood carvings, tie die and French clothing, preserves and other food for sale. Refreshments, bar, prosecco and other drinks and home made cakes. Games and craft activities for children (and adults!) and an opportunity to use the apple press and sample fresh apple juice

We are grateful for the support of Stoke Park, Signature Care Homes and Farnham Royal Parish Council.

The 2025 event will be held on Saturday 27th September - put the date in your diary now!
