Events 2023

We're based out of a beautiful old rustic barn in the grounds of a private house so our public opening hours are as random as our juice ... catch us when you can ... next opening times and events below!

The Applery at Shrigley Fold, Swanscoe, Macclesfield, SK10 5SZ (07742 678873)



Pop-up farmstand

My little 'random' pop-up farmstand with equally 'random' opening times!

Sometimes there's honey ... sometimes there's jams ... jellies ... cider.

But one thing's for sure ... there's ALWAYS Random Apple juice! 

Yum yum yum! Pop over and treat yourself ... *


Saturday 16th December 10am - 2pm Stock up on juice, cider and honey!


Monday 1st January 2024 12 midday - 3pm Juice, cider and FEASTABLE! Blow away the cobwebs with a NY day wander across the fields and join us in The Apple Barn for the BEST sausage rolls, hot stew, cake and hot mulled apple juice. Start 2024 right! 


*Please note we have parking available on pop-up farmstand days but please be considerate of our neighbours and our narrow country lanes when seeking us out!



Random Gatherings

Every so often we like to open up for some wonderfully random non-ticketed free events and help celebrate the orchards alongside our hard working Macclesfield foodie friends like Feastable, Kickback Coffee, Tommy's Pizza, Brewbox, Yas Bean to name a few!

Keep an eye out for the next one!



Workshops in the Apple Barn

Festive Found & Foraged wreath making workshops with HOMEstead Grown

Our November and December wreath making workshops are always a sell-out because they are just that little bit different ... one might even say gorgeously 'random'!

HOMEstead Grown's Rachel and I gather all the greenery, berries, sprigs of crab apples and much more from the fields around us in Swanscoe - and create a foragers dream in the rustic Apple Barn with armfuls and basketfuls of materials for you to dig through and design with to your heart's content.

We aim to be as totally local and utterly sustainable as possible - but help you create something completely bespoke and utterly beautiful for your front door ... all in the surroundings of our wonderful Random Apple HQ ... while enjoying a hot mug (or two!) of our hot mulled apple juice. Utter seasonal perfection.

For dates and to book on click on the link below and fill in the registration form .... Rachel will be in touch!

Your homegrown apples for Random Apple juice swaps - NOW CLOSED

* See you for the next apple season starting September 2024! *

See 'The Random Apple Company' page for details of how it works and drop us a message to book in for an apple drop off slot. Please note we work these slots around our other commitments and are not available onsite everyday - any apples left without a drop off slot will be treated as a donation.

Due to high demand drop off slots are booking up a few weeks in advance - to avoid disappointment please don't pick your apples until your slot is confirmed!

Many thanks!

We're incredibly proud of what we do and so we'd love to hear from anyone who has tried any of our Swanscoe products. Fancy stocking our delicious Random Apple juice? Want to book in your apples to bring this apple season? Or do you have an apple tree and are in desperate need of some pruning support?
