I have just spoken to the orchard and the cider buy will not take place
during learn to brew day. It will likely be in the 3rd week of November. I
will have an exact date as of the beginning of November. Sorry for the
delay and any confusion, but I am on their time tables and unfortunately
they are not well defined. Feel free to reach out to me with any concerns,
otherwise I will have a proper update next month. Cheers!

A quick update. If we do a double batch (500 Gallons
total) as I intend to
do this year there is still 150 Gallons remaining that can be requested. If
you are interested please let me know as soon as possible as I will be
finalizing the order with the orchard shortly. Thanks!

It's that time of year again,
We will be doing a Club Cider buy from the same orchard as last year. I
would like to do the drop off at Learn to Homebrew day again (Nov 2 -
Barley John's), but unfortunately I won't know the pick-up date until late
October...If they can't make the November 2nd date it will be another
weekend in early November.
The price should be $4 a gallon again (if the price fluctuates it won't
be by much) and you will need to supply your own vessel(s), ideally 5
gallon buckets.
Please let me know how much you would like, in 5 gallon quantities. I
wish I had more information but this is not a commercial venture and there
are always logistical issues. If you are not interested in "relaxing and
having a homebrew" and are on a tight schedule please do not participate as
this is a time consuming affair. I will update you all when I have
confirmed the date & location. Club members will get first preference
(please have your dues up to date). Please let me know if you have any
questions. Thanks!
