APPLE CIDER DAY

 

Here we are waiting our turn to start making our apple cider.  The old Apple Cider Machine underwent renovations this summer and we're anxious to get it going!

 

 

 

We've been discussing how people in the past made their own juice.  Pretty soon we discover that it's hard work!

 

 

After lots of turning, it looks like we're about to get the apples chopped!

 

 

Now it's time to start crushing those apples! 

 

 

 

 

And finally, the results!

 

It was worth the hard work. We all enjoyed the fresh juice!

 

                      The next day we wrote stories about our experience. 

  What a great way to celebrate our study of Johnny Appleseed  as well as October's National Apple Month!
