Cider Squeeze

Get your squeeze on in University Place

By Suzy Stump on September 4, 2008

On the first day of September I sat with a dozen eggs to, once and for all, confirm or dispel the nagging question of whether or not eggs will stand unaided after Labor Day. What I had was scrambled eggs for breakfast. What is guaranteed is that fall is upon us and it’s time for some folks to roll out the cider press in anticipation of the first golden drops of autumnal tonic. Tain’t nothing like a gallon or so of fresh cider to clear the constitution. The folks at Curran Apple Orchard host their annual cider squeeze Sunday offering to press apples folks pick in the orchard. Expect children’s activities, apple pie, and live bluegrass and barbershop.
