The Kirkby Fruit Project are supporting the Kirkbymoorside ‘Gateway to the Moors’ Music Festival 2026 by producing, free of charge, a limited edition festival Cider – a medium sweet ‘Festival Gold’ and and a dry ‘Gateway to the Moors’ cider to sell exclusively at next year’s festival. The festival is organised and run entirely by local volunteers and the cider will be sold to help them to raise the funds they need to continue.

If you would like to give all or some of your apples to the festival cider, please says so when booking in or delivering your apples: we can take more than the normal 80kg per person if the additional fruit is being donated to festival cider production.
