• “We just finished. For the last two mornings, we have been pressing all the apples we could scrape together from our orchard, a friend’s orchard and a tree growing on the road allowance. We borrowed the apple press from the Growers and Producers Association.” — The Islands Grapevine – September 26th, 2024 (September 26th, 2024)
