Looking to make some cider this year? Each year a bunch of Washington Homebrewers Association folks get together down in Castle Rock for a big group apple pressing. It is a lot of fun (and a bunch of work too).
Basically you show up and start working on processing apples. It is a group project. YOU CANNOT SHOW UP AND EXPECT TO LEAVE WITH APPLE JUICE WITHOUT WORKING!!!! So come down to get dirty and see how real cider is made. Bring buckets to take home your cider.
If you have any questions, contact Mark Emiley.
