We report on all things cider related
The apple pressing season is starting early in 2020! We want your apples!
The apples are ready early this year and we’ve already had lots of enquiries about bringing unwanted apples in to the farm. So the good news is that apple pressing starts on the farm on Monday 21st September - so we want your apples!
Bring your apples to the shop on the farm and you can take some free cider or apple juice home with you. Fill up one of our trugs and we'll swap it for a bottle of our 3 Point 9 cider. Up to a maximum of 12 bottles per household. 18+ only. Or we will swap two trugs for a 3L bag in box of our delicious apple juice - so that might be something to tempt any children to help with picking your apples.
This offer runs from 21st Septmber to 3rd October 2020 only and the shop is open Monday to Saturday 10am - 2pm.
Our shop is on Grange Farm, Farndish, Wellingborough, Northants NN29 7HJ
We'll see you soon!

We have lots happening on the farm this Autumn. We'll be picking and pressing our apples very soon getting next year's cider ready. The pumpkins are growing steadily in the field and will be ready for PYO picking too. And we'll be opening our new taproom for some more events.
See you soon! Philip & Amanda Saxby
SAXBY'S CIDER APPLE DAY PARTY ON THE FARM

Come and celebrate the wonderful world of apples with us on the farm. Where would Saxby’s Cider be without them?
We’ll have apple pressing demonstrations all afternoon using our original rack and cloth press and if you bring your own apples we’ll press them for you so you can take home the juice. Kids will be entertained with a treasure hunt and can go on a trailer ride around the orchard.
The bar will be open with our usual ciders and we’ll be serving hot mulled cider too. Come and try our new Bourbon barrel-aged cider. We’ll also have street food to make sure everyone is well-fed. Duncan Craven will be playing his guitar during the afternoon and keeping us entertained.
