Join us for this very special celebration of autumn.

Have a go at making your own candle with Beeswax sheets, or why not press your own apple juice in the beautiful wooden apple press. There’s a Busy Bees Quiz to complete too. It’s a full family day out with lots of activities throughout to enjoy.

As part of Apple Day at Cliffe Castle on Saturday 26^th October, come and join Be The Future at a free family friendly drop-in creating the green streets of the future. Explore how nature can help the fight against climate change on our interactive floor projector, rewild our model street of the future using LEGO, and add your visions for the future to our hope tree.

Parking is sometimes limited at Cliffe Castle so do consider walking from Keighley centre or nearby. While you’re here, why not enjoy a slice of cake and a drink in the café within the beautiful glass houses.

Free – No booking required, just drop-in.
