Saturday, October 20, 2018 – Pop-Up Kimlin Sweet Cider & Cafe Opening

This year we made so much Kimlin Sweet Cider that we have enough left over from last week’s event to organize this impromptu event.

Made on a 100-year-old cider press with local apples, our fresh-pressed Kimlin Sweet Cider is only available for a limited time.  If you missed our tasting event, this is your chance to sit at the café booths while sipping our sweet cider and tour the Mill, decorated in the Halloween spirit.

Cider and donuts will be available.  Donation encouraged.
