On Friday, Oct. 4 Eve’s Cidery owner and cider master Autumn Stoscheck will pour tastings alongside Redbyrd Orchard Cider and Bellwether Hard Cider at The Cellar d’Or Wine Shop from 4-6pm. 

At 6:30pm, we’ll head over to the Tompkins County Worker’s Center to wash it all down with a presentation by Autumn on making small-batch, craft hard cider from upstate NY apples.  We’ll talk about why the Finger Lakes is poised to become an internationally recognized cider region, and taste the components that will make this possible.

This delicious talk is presented collaboratively by FLX Cider Alliance and Durland Alternative Library’s new satellite at the TC Worker’s Center.  Join us at The Cellar d’Or for tasty libations followed by a fantastic talk at the Workers Center by a true cider artist.
