Portland Revels Cider Pressing Party and Harvest Potluck

Apple Cider Pressing Party & Harvest Potluck

Sunday, October 7, 2012 from 1 to 6pm
Hillsboro, Oregon

Every autumn, Portland Revels looks forward to hosting its annual Apple Cider Press & Potluck Party. Based on the country truism that, "many hands make light work" Revels rounds up bushels of apples, sets up presses, and invites friends, neighbors and curious passers-by to come chop a few apples to feed the presses. The fruits of this labor are gallons galore of sweet, fresh apple juice.

This year's party will be held from 1 to 6pm on Sunday, October 9th at 175 NE 7th Ave in Hillsboro. We'll enjoy live music, with members of Bridgetown Morris and Renegade Rose Morris teams entertaining with song and dance. Once the apples are all squeezed, a potluck feast will be laid out and everyone will be invited to fill up their plate. By the end of the party, we anticipate guests will have a gallon of apple juice and a story or two to take home. To join in, bring a labeled jug to collect your share of cider, and your potluck specialty dish to contribute. We'll ask an entry fee of $10 per person, or $20 per family to raise funds for the Christmas Revels show.
