…has come and gone. We picked the trees clean and pressed the final batch of cider on Labor Day. Jeremy saved out a few boxes of the best apples for me to turn into sauce, so that is what I’ve been doing today. Here’s a few photos and videos of the apple doings if you were unable to join us…

| Jesse and Julia (the kitchen aid) straining applesauce. |
Jess is a great help with the applesauce. As long as he gets paid afterward – with a spoon and a fresh bowlful!

| Apples under pressure. |
Remember – Pressure and Trials produce beautiful things, by God’s grace.
Love those family projects. I have sauce left from last year, so plan to freeze apple pie filling this year. But first – getting all the corn that we picked yesterday into the freezer.
That was really cool. So much home grown goodness.
wow! what an elaborate cider press! I remember making cider like this at my grandparents house when I was little, but the press was much smaller. Oh that stuff tasted good! 🙂
Love little Jesse introducing us to “new baby”. Seth sure is alert! Looks like you all are having a busy fall! ENJOY!
