Cider Time

 This huge antique cider press was built in 1913 and is still working today.

 Bags of apples are brought in by the tractor load and dumped into the press.




 With over 500 apple trees, Antique Apple Orchard offers approximately 200 varieties of apples.  We could taste all we wanted to.  So good!  :D





The juice was  cyphened into the barrel and handdipped into the bottles.....you could have quart, 1/2 gal. or gallon jugs.

 This little girl was picking flowers and she offered me some.  Isn't she sweet ......The dandylions were sweet too.  lol
Brocard's Antique Apple Orchard and Cider Mill is just across and down the road from where we live in Sweet Home.  It has been in operation every year since 1913.  We went there today and had some fresh sweet cider.  m-m-m so good!!!
