About the event

Community Apple Butter Making:

Start: 9:00 AM

Early risers, bring your peeling knives and come ready to help stir! We’ll prepare apples and cook them down all day in a copper pot over an open fire. Many hands make light work! We are asking just $5 per participant to help cover costs. Please get your tickets in advance so we can estimate the appropriate amount of apples.

Participants can pick up their finished jar of apple butter starting Sunday morning.

Local musicians and bands playing all afternoon and into the evening. Bring a blanket or comfy chair and enjoy the tunes! Artists will be announced soon!
