Commission's Role in Drafting Annual Budget Plans
The Orchard Exchange, scheduled to launch in Upper Franconia in 2025, aims to bridge the gap between orchard owners and enthusiasts. This innovative platform, organized by regional orchard advisors, facilitates suitable contacts for various purposes, such as one-time harvests, tree care assistance, joint pressing, or long-term leases.
Stefan Grundner, the contact person for the Orchard Exchange, can be reached via email at [email protected].

In the district and city of Bayreuth, Amrei Schindelmann can be contacted at 0921 728-784.
The Orchard Exchange does not specify any particular payment method for one-time harvests, nor does it provide information on the specific duration of long-term leases. However, it offers opportunities for various types of collaborations, such as help with tree care and joint pressing.
Many people appreciate the taste of old varieties and the quality of unsprayed orchard fruit. Currently, apples and early plum varieties are typically already harvested in the Orchard Exchange, with late apples to follow in the coming weeks.
For those seeking fruit or wishing to offer an orchard plot, registration is available. However, as there are no direct search results specifically about an "Orchard Exchange" in Bamberg and Bayreuth or explicit contacts for connecting with local orchard owners or enthusiasts there, alternative approaches can be taken.
To get involved with orchard activities such as fruit harvesting or exchange in Upper Franconia including Bamberg and Bayreuth, consider the following recommendations:
- Local agriculture clubs or horticultural societies: Many regions in Bavaria have local fruit-growing or gardening clubs where members share knowledge, labor, or products. Contacting town halls or community centers in Bamberg and Bayreuth could help identify these groups.
- Community social media groups or platforms: Search for local Facebook groups, Nextdoor communities, or similar platforms focusing on gardening, sustainability, or local food exchange in Upper Franconia. These channels often facilitate connections for fruit picking or exchange.
- Farmers markets and local events: Visiting farmers markets, harvest festivals, or local fairs in Bamberg and Bayreuth can connect you with orchard owners or enthusiasts. Events listed on regional event calendars might include such opportunities[2].
- Local guesthouses or accommodations near orchards: Some B&Bs or guesthouses in Bavaria emphasize proximity to orchards or local agricultural activities[1][3]. Staff or hosts might have firsthand knowledge of or connections to orchard owners.
- Local agricultural extension services or cooperatives: In Bavaria, agricultural advice centers and cooperatives often help connect people interested in orchard work or fruit exchange. Contacting these could offer leads.
Without a specific Orchard Exchange entity found in the search results, these general community-focused methods are recommended to connect with orchard networks in Bamberg, Bayreuth, and the broader Upper Franconia region. If you require more localized groups beyond the current results, I can help generate contact details or online search suggestions.
- The Orchard Exchange, even though it doesn't provide information on specific payment methods or long-term lease durations, offers opportunities for collaboration in home-and-garden activities such as tree care and joint pressing, which could be beneficial for those interested in adopting a lifestyle centred around orchard cultivation.
- For those looking to get involved in orchard activities in Upper Franconia, specifically in Bamberg and Bayreuth, and struggling to find the Orchard Exchange, alternative methods such as connecting with local agriculture clubs, community social media groups, visiting farmers markets, or staying at local guesthouses near orchards might lead to fruitful encounters with orchard owners and enthusiasts, thus fostering a lifestyle centered around home-and-garden activities.
