Today I invite yoo to join me on my first ever field trip to celebrate Everything Autumn.
We're going to visit Yates Cider Mill in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
My momma and daddy grew up in Michigan with fond memories of elementary school field trips to Yates Cider Mill, now celebrating 160 years of being one of Michigan's most beloved places to spend a day in autumn.
So without further delay, click on the video below.
I hope yoo enjoyed my field trip and learned stuff yoo didn't know about how apple cider is made. If the links in the video aren't working and yoo want to learn more about the history of Yates Cider Mill, please click the image below to go to their website. And while there yoo can also order apple cider and donuts to be shipped to yoo on the day yoo request.
Well, I'm exhausted and need a nap, so I'm going to say bye bye. If yoo would leave me a message to let me know if yoo enjoyed my field trip, it might help me create future field trips. Thank yoo so much for joining me. Now go off and make it a Wonderpurr day.
Until Next Time...
Yummy!
ReplyDeleteWe drive past this location often!
ReplyDeleteDrive by smelling of apple cider is free!
DeleteThat was very interesting, Dori. The Westcountry where I live is famous for it's cider but is made very differently. Whole apples are put in a cider press after any substandard ones have been taken out, then the press like a giant screw presses all the juice out of them. Some is sold fresh as apple juice, but the majority has yeast and sugar added and is matured to make different strengths of cider. We have scrumpy cider here which is much stronger and has no additives. It is sometimes called cloudy cider and is not pasteurised. A pint of that and you know you have had it!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that's what other cider mills are calling hard cider, the kind yoo get vewy silly after dwinking.
DeleteDear Dori, no wonder you need a nap. That was exciting video of apple cider making. Can you imagine the tour and smells of the donut factory! Thanks fur showing this to us. Now we are thursty and hungry. Precious
ReplyDeleteMe too, although I will nom donuts I am not a fan of apple cider or pumpkin spice.

ReplyDeleteSo happy yoo joined my field twip, Miz Ellen.
DeleteThat's really interesting! We live in an area where they produce apple cider but here, it is an alcoholic beverage which you call hard cider. The stuff with no alcohol is just called apple juice, still or sparkling! One of our friends takes part every year in November in a festival where they crush the apple using an old fashioned press powered by horses!
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans
That hard cider stuff is popping up everywhere these days. My momma prefers the old-fashioned nice apples that even little kids can dwink.
DeleteThe mom has been to Yates!
