I didn't buy any of the above. I got Northern Spy apples, a pumpkin for carving, some winter squash, and a few other odds and ends, and had lunch at their cafe.
I have some strong cider and some perry at home, but you're right, blueberry?I'm not lost. I know where I am. I'm right here. -
I didn't do so this year, but most falls a neighbor and I will gather apples from folks whom can't or won't bother to pick and press them into cider. He takes his share of cider to church whereby he makes a tidy sum but I freeze most of mine and enjoy it throughout the winter. We do take a dozen gallons or so to the local shelter.
Unfortunately the guy operating the cider press closed shop during the summer. Lots of apples were wasted this season.

Do you freeze the apples or the cider?
And doesn't that effect the taste? -

One traditional way of making applejack is to take strong cider and allow it to freeze. Go out to the shed once a day, skim and throw away the ice. In a hard winter it'll develop quite a kick since you're freezing away the water and keeping the ethanol.
It's also instant headache for a lot of people because you're keeping all the dissolved organic compounds that distillation throws away, so go easy on the stuff.I'm not lost. I know where I am. I'm right here. -

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.
