Hey everyone, How was every ones's fruit harvest this year? I didn't get but very few apples, maybe two peaches but I did get a lot of pears so I guess I'd better just be thankful for that. We canned and dehydrated them and all the blemished or small ones we broke out Dad's old cider press and made pear cider. This old press has been in the family for a long time and I had to rework it a bit, spiffed it up and tightened everything up. I also have an old Buckeye Press that is still in peaces I need to build the wooden part and put it together. I bought for $2 at a farm auction, they were not even going to sell it even after I spotted it and dug it out of the dirt from under a tree. All the parts are there too, even the metal rings for the press buckets.
