CiderDays in Franklin County

corn prints 004 For five dollars you got this very nice little glass, and there was a standing room only crowd of extremely serious folks listening intently and asking questions about the science of cider. 250 people. Servers would come around and serve you a little bit and the guys on stage would discuss it, after the maker stood up and described how it was made. It was lovely.
Then I had an apple dumpling/fresh goat cheese/ lady apple picnic with my family on the grass in front while other people’s children whipped gourds at each other. I love Western Massachusetts.

Corn Prints for the Kitchen
