the Story

Currently, and beginning in 2020, I have made cider in a small barn on the banks of the Nehalem River in Tillamook County on Oregon's North Coast. Apples and fruit for fermentations are more 'found' than 'farmed' and sourced from numerous forgotten trees, large and small, old and young, on both sides of the Oregon Coast Range. 

Fermentations are natural in both tank and barrel, rolling throughout the harvest season without additions or adjustments of any kind in the cellar. All current offerings are bottle conditioned in glass with fresh juice or local raw honey to best preserve the spirit of diverse and wild fruit and the place where it grows.

Grateful for all the stewards of old trees I have met thus far who have shared stories and fruit. Thanks to all the loved ones, mentors, friends and family for help and support and thank you for being interested in a small project!
