We make ciders and fruit wines that people love to drink. We use whole fruit and ingredients and low intervention wine making techniques.

“Farmers keep showing up with wonderful stuff. Foraged apples, pawpaws, purple raspberries, trailer loads of pumpkins.”

— Tim arscott, cider maker

 

The cidery began as an extension of our farm and a desire to make a new way of life that kept us closer to our home, family and food. It has grown into a community of orchards and small farms.

We came to cider and fruit wine as a way to make a small-scale farm work. We believe cider and fruit wines should be a force for good in small-scale agriculture. Creativity allows for many local fruits and ingredients in our ciders and wines.
