Apple Juice

Every fall, when the apples are ready, we pick them and then, using Lon's parents apple press, we make apple juice. Fresh apple juice is one of our families favorite drinks. We usually freeze most of the juice we make, drink some fresh and then share the rest with friends. Yum!
First we have to pick the apples
Pick-up trucks full of apples
everyone gets to help

Red, yellow, green and any variety of apple we can find to pick
Of course, you have to eat apples, also!
Then, you have to wash, cut out the bad spots and then press the apples
The process takes a lot of people working together......building memories

Pressing the apples takes teamwork

I LOVE fresh pressed apple juice! All the pictures are cool especially the one of Tiffany pouring out the apples with some of the apples in midair.

What a wonderful and neat thing to do as a family! (: Also, such a great way to have an appreciation for effort and preparation that it takes for apple juice! Loved the pictures!
