Pre-Order Cider Fresh Pressed At The Vander Mill Cider Mill
Pre-Orders Closing Thursday
This year we've teamed up with the Vander Mill Cider Mill for our annual Cider Buy. That means that you can get hold of the same cider Vander Mill uses in their award winning ciders! Our cider will be pressed from apples that arrive fresh picked from orchards around the mill. The juice is unfiltered, unpasteurized and has no preservatives.
Bring Your Vessels in By Friday Evening
Bring in your sanitized, sealed vessel with your name and order number by Friday evening. We will begin filling early Friday so cider will be available to pick by 6 PM at the latest.
Join us for our favorite Fall tradition and brew some hard cider from the best source you'll find and get some extra to drink fresh!
