Join us for one special weekend only as we fire up the old-fashioned cider press and fill the air with the crisp, sweet scent of freshly ground apples grown right here on the farm. Watch as we hand-crank the wheel and drop in this season’s harvest, turning orchard-fresh fruit into pure, golden cider.

Fresh cider will be available for purchase while supplies last—don’t wait! This small-batch cider is only pressed once a year and is available for two days only, so be sure to stop by early.

Celebrate the season, sip something delicious, and experience a true taste of fall at Kristoferson Farm.
