Orchard/Cider Experience and Cooking Demo with Granny's Traditional Griddle Bread

Overview

2h
Long Meadow Cider is a third generation, award winning, family run business based in the beautiful Orchard County of Armagh owned by the McKeever family. They produce a range of artisan craft ciders, apple juice and apple cider vinegar from handpicked apples grown and harvested on their farm at Long Meadow. They have won various awards including The Great Taste Awards and the Irish Food and Drink Blas Na hEirrean Awards. They have diversified significantly over the years from apple farmers harvesting over 100 acres of apple orchard to cider producers and now to offering bespoke, personal tour experiences on their family farm to both national and international visitors. Their latest Orchard/Cider Experience and Cooking Demo with Granny's Traditional Griddle Bread is a fully immersive, interactive experience where visitors have the opportunity to walk through their various orchard plantations and witness first hand the beautiful apple blossom in May or the laden apple trees at harvest in September and October. Visitors learn about the whole craft cider/apple juice production from start to finish, enjoy tastings of their award winning products and sit back and relax in their new glass fronted Bramley Barn set in the heart of the orchard and enjoy a cuppa with granny’s traditional griddle breads, local cheese and chutneys. This is a truly enjoyable, interactive experience led by the McKeever Family set in the heart of the orchard county. Long Meadow Cider is very much a family run business with family at the very heart of everything they do. Further information on their family business, product range and tour experiences can be found at www.longmeadowcider.com
