Cider Saturday 2026
Ciderday 2026
We will be hosting our annual Ciderday event on the first Saturday in November,
Saturday, November 7th
We will be sourcing apple varieties in the coming weeks. One thing we do know; no matter the varieties that we select, the apple juice turns out to be some of the best juice that you will experience all season.
We will bring in between 4 & 6 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 will start juice pre-sale in October. Be on the lookout for more information on this site and in the newsletter
so you can be guaranteed to getting some of this delicious nectar juice.

We will keep 150-200 gallons on reserve to sell on that day
Plan to bring your own containers for transport and save money. We'll have containers available to purchase as well.
At the event, we will have fresh juice,
bags of apples and gallon jugs of cider.
We'll have a sanitizing station set-up for customers to sanitize their containers.
FREE ADDITIVES - Campden and Pectic Enzyme - will be available with the purchase of juice on Ciderday.
If you are ordering juice for the first time, it is best to plan on making about a gallon more cider than will fill your secondary fermenter. This way you won't have to worry about the head space in your secondary. Apples and apple juice tend to oxidize quickly, illustrated by a browning of the fruit and/or browning of the juice; therefore, maintaining FULL carboys in the final stage is highly recommended.
We will start dispensing of the cider around 10:30.
The more help we get, the smoother things will go.
