There was an incredible range of apples, an apple Doctor to give advice and an opportunity to see round an apple packing plant.

The apples have to be handled very carefully but the quantities are huge so the machinery has to be very well designed.

There were lots of apples to be tasted (we lost count!) and thoughtful leaflets giving details of type, quality and availability as well as historic and breeding details

There were pears as well as apples each table showing a display card giving full details.
