We know hard cider. Our handcrafted ciders are naturally tart, aromatic,and never sweet. With over 3,000 trees nestled at the base of South Mountain, in late April our blooms rival the Cherry Blossom Festival. In addition to cider tastings we will have bee keeping demonstrations, guided orchard tours and for the kids a Junior Orchardist Scavenger Hunt.
