The story

If September had a soundtrack, this would be it. Spend the afternoon wandering through the orchard with a basket, picking whatever's in season. Grab a drink in the garden café, settle into the last warm days of summer, then watch the space slowly transform as musicians arrive and the lights come on. Thirty artists - many who've never played together before - jamming live. It makes the evening feel wonderfully imperfect, spontaneous and impossible to repeat. It's the kind of day that starts with plums and ends with an encore.
