Apple Cider Press Day

Make your own apple cider with us! Here’s how:

• Dress comfortably: Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a little messy. You will be making cider using a manual hand-crank press, and apple juice is sticky.
• Bring a container: Bring a clean, lidded bottle, jar or receptacle to take your cider home.

• Buy apples at the market: We strongly urge you to support local by purchasing apples from our vendor, Kiyokawa Orchards. They will offer apples for cider pressing at a discounted price.

  • Please do not bring apples from outside the market to press (e.g., fruit from big-box supermarkets, grocery stores, or a yard, windfall fruit, etc.).
• Be patient: Plan to spend extra time at the market this week because of the event’s popularity.
• Get pressing: We will help you prepare your apples for the press, but you will be doing the cranking!

Hope to see you at the market!
