Core! It’s National Apple Day
Monday 21st marked
National Apple Day here in the UK, a date where museums, galleries,
horticultural societies and many more gather together to celebrate the humble
fruit. Initiated by Common Ground, a charity that raises awareness of the
relationship between nature and culture, Apple Day extends to a general
celebration of provenance and traceability in our food produce.
Apple Day: A History
The very first Apple Day event was
held in Covent Garden, London 19 years ago and its popularity has grown hugely
since then! In 2000, there were over 600 events held in the UK and today some even
attract thousands.
Common Ground also use the day to
raise awareness of apples and orchards more generally and of their importance
to British landscape and culture, as well as the value of traceability –
something we’re right behind at Creamline!
