Cider Saturday 2024
Ciderday
We will be hosting our annual Ciderday event on the first Saturday in November,
Saturday November 2nd
 Cider Making Yeast |
 Fruit Purees |
With the damage to the apple crop done by hurricane Helene, We are very blessed to be able to procure apples for our Ciderday event. This years blend will consist of
Fuji, Granny Smith and Golden Supreme.
This will be a delicious blend for making a hard cider or simply enjoyable as freshly pressed juice.
We will bring in about 4 tons of apples that will need to be crushed and pressed. We will start crushing about 8:30am on that Saturday. We will be utilizing our 2-ton crusher and our two (2) 120 liter bladder presses which should make the process go pretty fast.
We have sold all the juice we allocated for pre-orders.
We are reserving 200 gallons for Saturday.
The price is now $7.29 per gallon.
At the event, we will have fresh juice (without containers),
bags of apples and gallon and half-gallon glass jugs of cider.
Bring your own containers for transport and save money.
Gallon jugs and pails will be available for purchase.

If you are ordering juice for the first time, it is best to plan on making either 6 gallons in order to end up with a full 5 gallon carboy or 4 gallons to end up with a full 3 gallon batch. Apples and apple juice tend to oxidize quickly, illustrated by a browning of the fruit or browning of the juice; therefore, maintaining FULL carboys in the final stage are highly recommended.
We will start dispensing of the cider around 10:30.
