Here in New England, November can be a little rough. The leaves have turned to brown, and fallen to the ground. The temperature has dropped dramatically. And during particularly brutal years, the snow makes an unreasonably early appearance, before you’ve even had the chance to start thinking about turkey, as if to remind you who’s boss.

But here in New England, when winter shows up early to steal away our beloved fall, there’s only one thing to do: get together with your friends & family for an apple cider making party in the snow. Because if there are 3 things we love here, it’s complaining about the weather, parties in the woods, and hot apple cider.

Here is a glimpse of a truly quintessential New England November Saturday. Cheers, and wishing everyone a warm and cozy winter ahead!
