Join us for a volunteering event with Cambridge Sustainable Food.
All are invited to join us as we pick surplus apples from our very own orchard to donate to a local organisation.
Apples will be donated to Cambridge Sustainable Food, a local organisation working to build a fairer, more sustainable food system which supports the community and the environment. After we pick surplus apples Cambridge Sustainable Food will be able to batch cook the apples into some delicious seasonal treats, which will be distributed at their community events.
Attendees will get the opportunity to:
- Spend time in our beautiful orchards in their glorious autumnal colours
- Pick surplus apples and enjoy the mindfulness this activity brings
- Meet new people from our college community
- Find out more about the local network of sustainable food initiatives in our wider Cambridge community
This event is part of the Wellbeing Team’s Civic Engagement strand. These events are designed to nurture the wellbeing of our College members by promoting positive feelings of making a difference and giving back, meeting people from all walks of life, and building connections in our local Cambridge community.
Everybody is welcome, and there is no need to pre-book. Feel free to drop in for 5 minutes, or stay for the whole hour.
To find the orchard, find the chapel, then walk straight on between the Brian Heap Building and the Richard Laws Building. Turn left towards the trees.
