Cider-making December 5thThe cider-making on December 5th/6th is strictly members-only so that we can manage it within the regulations and with appropriate risk mitigation.
Date: Saturday December 5th, 2020. Location: Mosser. Members only. Booking absolutely essential. No more than 2 people per session.
This event is solely for the creation of the NCOG group cider which will be stored on site. It is not permissible to remove the juice for your own use owing to the risk of cross-contamination. Please see the attached document for the "cider club" rules.
Time slots are every half-hour starting at 10:30 with a half-hour lunch break. Maximum fruit weight per session is 35kg, which will yield about 20L of juice. If you have more than 35kg apples, please book more than one session. Apples must be clean and rot-free (unwashed hand-picked apples are OK if they are clean). Please take away the pressed apple pulp.
This will be a self-service operation - i.e. you come, operate the equipment and leave. Strict rules will apply to comply with COVID regulations and mitigate known risks - these will be communicated to all attendees in advance along with directions etc.
This event is bookable - see details and book -

AGM 2020Annual General Meeting: Tuesday December 8th at 7:30pm
Our Annual General Meeting will be at 7:30 on Tuesday, December 8th. On the fairly safe assumption that large indoor gatherings will not be permitted, the event will be conducted through the medium of Zoom. Unfortunately, Zoom has not yet worked out how to deliver food and drink at the same time as the meeting, so that element will be missing. However we do hope to have some social element alongside the standard business on what will be our 10th anniversary.
Full details and and business reports will be sent out later.
