Harvest & Bake: A Local Apple Pie Workshop

Embark on a delightful paddock to plate journey at Hillside Harvest Orchard.

Guided by a Hillside Harvest grower, wander through rows of fragrant apple trees, hand-picking the ripest fruits destined for a delicious homemade pie. Be immersed in the orchard’s charm and gain insights into the art of apple cultivation and learn why the Orange region is known as Australia’s Fruit Basket.

Back to the shop and it’s time to get busy, with a hands-on pie-making experience using fresh, local ingredients. Be guided by a baker through crafting the perfect pastry and creating a tantalizing apple filling, complete with a few insider tricks to elevate anyone’s pie game.

At the heart of this workshop lies Grandma’s cherished recipe, a testament to the warmth and tradition of homemade pies. Uncover the nostalgic flavours that have stood the test of time, creating a pie that pays homage to the past while embracing the bounty of the present.

To finish the class, indulge in a slice of Grandma’s pie, served with Split Milk gelato and Little Big Dairy double cream. Each handcrafted masterpiece will be boxed up to take home ready to be enjoyed with family and friends.
