Blackawton Primary pupils celebrated their annual Apple Day with juice-making, baking, and gardening fun. 🍎 Community support helped raise funds for new equipment and bee-friendly plants. Next up: Christmas chutneys and a school biodiversity project! 🌿 #AppleDay #Community

The old cracked beech pressure board which has been replaced.
The apple press is all set for Apple Day. We’ll put it to use this week if the weather holds.

A montage of the tiny terrace garden apple tree featuring in many many forms with a good sprinkling of a small sausage dog thrown in! Knits, bakes, crochets, snails, dyes, saplings - the twisty little apple tree is very loved!
🍏Adoration for the twisty little garden apple tree this #appleday - local lore tells of an inhabiting spirit that protects the tree & ripens the fruit, folk called 'Uld Dovne' hereabouts which means sleepily lazy, but this glorious tree yields beauty, blossom, fruit, dyestuff...

Happy #AppleDay 🍎
Today we’re celebrating all things apple. This is a great opportunity to reflect upon our seasonal harvest, and a chance to connect with local growers, seek out your nearby orchards, and buy English, local, and fresh.

The Apple’s Song by Edwin Morgan Tap me with your finger, rub me with your sleeve, hold me, sniff me, peel me curling round and round till I burst out white and cold from my tight red coat and tingle in your palm as if I’d melt and breathe a living pomander waiting for the minute of joy when you lift me to your mouth and crush me and in taste and fragrance I race through your head in my dizzy dissolve. I sit in the bowl in my cool corner and watch you as you pass smoothing your apron. Are you thirsty yet? My eyes are shining.
Tap me with your finger,
rub me with your sleeve,
hold me, sniff me, peel me
curling round and round
till I burst out white and cold
from my tight red coat…
—Edwin Morgan, “The Apple’s Song”
a #poem for #AppleDay which is definitely about an apple 🍎
in CENTENARY SELECTED POEMS @carcanet.bsky.social
It all began with an apple. 🍏
A fruit that feeds us, inspires us, and keeps our planet alive with the buzz of bees. 🐝
Today, on Apple Day, we raise our glasses to the orchards that sustain us and the choices that shape a better world. 🌍

Juicy red apples hang from a branch surrounded by vibrant green leaves. Sunlight filters through, creating a dreamy effect with a soft glow. The fine silk of spiderwebs creates a stunning bokeh.

Ha! Happy National #AppleDay!

Illustration of a chocolate apple divided into segments and wrapped in foil, alongside a Terry's Dessert Chocolate Apple box.
Directions from a Dessert Apple box, 'Unwrap the tinfoil carefully and tap sharply the bottom of the Terry-Apple on the table. The Apple immediately falls into 20 dainty slices of appetizing quality and appearance which can be conveniently served round in the same manner as a divided Orange.'
Whilst it might not count as one of your 5 a day, we think the Terry's Dessert Apple is worth a mention on #AppleDay! Launched in 1926, this Terry's of York product looked like an apple, but didn't taste like one. It was made of dark chocolate and intended as an after-dinner novelty.
