MARMALADE DAY - Sunday, February 13

ORANGES! and more oranges! The trees at Sa Taronja ("the Orange") are heavy with fruit.

We will be making our first batch of (sweet orange) marmalade next Sunday, February 13th. Participation fee: 5€

Visitors may come and watch, but we prefer those who are prepared to get their fingers sticky. All helpers go home with a pot or two of delicious marmalade made from our organic oranges. You can stay for part or all of the day.

Serious volunteers are very welcome - please bring empty jars!

Note: this is not an activity suitable for small children, but children and families are welcome to come and "pick their own" - we sell our organic oranges and lemons at 2€/kilo for the benefit of Sa Taronja.

Programme:

11:00 - picking oranges
11:15 - squeezing and cutting
12:30 - 15:00: cooking the marmalade
15:30 - 16:30: sterilising and filling the jars.

Lunch available by reservation.

Activity cancelled in case of rain
