Fresh Pressed Cider
CIDER MAKERS MUST BRING THEIR OWN JUGS FOR THEIR CIDER!
We offer the opportunity for you to press your own cider using our old-fashioned cider presses. We've even gathered the apples for you.
Important: Due to high demand, cider making is done on a reservation basis only. Please see the "How to make a cider making reservation" section of the Newsletter page.
More information on cider can be found in the newsletter.
Mix
Throughout the summer, different varieties of apples are coming to ripen. We pick those apples for you and bring them down to the cider presses where you can mix and match to get the perfect cider.
Press
Cider is created by putting apples through a grinder. This process is called pulping. When enough apples have been pulped, they are then squeezed in a press to produce cider.
Consume Safely
Before consumption, cider must be pasteurized to ensure that it is free of harmful bacteria. To download a PDF on pasteurization, click here.
