Why we do this
Honestly, this is the fun part. The Harvest Club is for people who get genuinely excited about a first flush of wild garlic, a long table under the vines, or learning the name of the farmer who grew their apples. Joining is an adventure that starts on your own doorstep and wanders a little further with every season: pick, forage, press, cook, eat, repeat. Your support keeps orchardsnearme.com running and growing as a directory of orchards, foraging spots and farm experiences, and makes you an ambassador for local produce and the people who grow it.

A few things before you begin
Is the calendar really free?
Yes. Sign up to the free Harvest Club list and the PDF download appears immediately. No payment details or account are needed.
Does this sign me up for paid membership?
No. The free calendar list is separate from paid Harvest Club membership. It does not unlock member-only posting or recipe submissions.
Can I print it?
Yes. Save the 14-page PDF and print the full calendar or just the month you need. It has a cover, twelve monthly pages and a Harvest Club invitation.
Are these organised trips?
No. The calendar offers inspiration rather than confirmed bookings. Check local seasons, access, permissions and official opening information. Go with a qualified guide for unfamiliar wild foods and coastal foraging.
Will the calendar arrive by email?
For now, download it directly after signup. Email delivery and Harvest Club updates are not yet configured.
