For my sisters birthday I gave her a
so called adoptive tree at the Olmenhorst. It's an apple tree you can adopt to stimulate the
organic apple production. The idea is that they hang a sign on a tree with your
name and when the apples are ripe you can go and harvest your own tree.
It was a surprisingly sunny and warm
day for the time of the year when we went to harvest. Also the last day of the
self-picking season, so a lot of festivities like pony riding and archery.
We went to pick our 25 kg of apples,
ate some lovely apple pie, bought some fresh goat cheese at the farm shop
and mainly had a very fun day and some fresh air. They almost every weekend
have some special activities and you can of course just go for their lovely
high tea which is what I'll be doing somewhere in the spring
