Cider Making October 30, 2010

The techniques used on the Farm to make apple cider, applesauce and apple pie are healthfully reminiscent of those used a century ago, when people--not motors--powered the cranks, handles and other appliances used to process food. From 10:00am-4:00pm, visitors can sample the work, fun and tastes of a circa-1900 apple harvest. Visitors of all ages will be invited to use the Farm's old fashioned presses, peeler-corers, and "stomper-strainers" to help farmers process apples. For the hungry, there will be apple pie and other apple treats.
