Terry’s Berries: Personal

Back when this crazy month of October got started Sarah and Ains and I went down to a local farm to sign up for a CSA and we got to tool around the farm.  Honestly, my mind was blown.  I haven’t gotten much of a chance to make it out and shoot nature or landscape much this summer, so to find myself on a farm, with amazing light, ducks, chicks, cider pressing, and gorgeous flowers, was almost too much for me to contain.  I took a lot of pictures that day.  Also, we bought a $10 jug of fresh cider.  Now, normally this would be way cheaper, but since we were not summer share members we paid full price.  Lets be honest here: if we are willing to pay $10 on a decent bottle of wine, there’s no reason not to spend the same on a gallon of cider.  Here’s the kicker…it was better than wine!!! I haven’t had anything like it.  I have been seriously interested in cider since we lived out in Massachusetts, but I have never had it “just pressed.”  Its like fresh corn in that it is so much better right away than if you wait.  In fact it was better the first few hours than it was the next day.  If you have never had freshly pressed cider you don’t know what you are missing.  If presented with the opportunity to pay $10 for a gallon of fresh press cider, then jump on it: your life will never be the same.  Oh…and I suppose I should post some pictures to this huh?  Cheers.
