Apple Butter and Cider Weekend

Lake Metroparks Farmpark continues the harvest season with a weekend all about apples! Discover how apple butter and cider are made – take an apple, toss it into the grinder and watch apple cider trickle out of the press.

“Having a mixture of apples makes the best cider with a good mixture of both sweet and tart,” explains Valerie Reinhardt, horticulture manager at Lake Metroparks Farmpark.

Then, grab hold of the paddle and stir the kettle boiling over an open flame as you make apple butter. Sample the sweet goodness of a variety of apples, apple cider and Farmpark's own apple butter. Walk in the footsteps of the harvest on the “Johnny Appleseed Trail.”

Farmpark admission ($6–8), Farmpark members, children under 2 and active military and their families receive free admission.
