Outside the Cider Apple Box – NAFEX 2024 Virtual Conference, Session 1

November 7 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm

Cider apples have been cultivated for centuries in Europe, but their performance in North America has not been without its challenges. A movement of fruit explorers and citizen scientists are changing the way ciders and perrys are made in the US.

Dave Carr of Raging Cider in San Marcos, California joins us to discuss how he has utilized a combination of feral, foraged, and cultivated fruit to craft very unique ciders and perrys. Carr will discuss the environmental pressures of growing in Southern California and how he has adapted to environmental pressures. He will also discuss seedling trials and his orchard. Whether you’re a seasoned grower, forager, cider maker or just curious, you’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of how to perhaps craft your own exceptional cider.

This interactive webinar is part of the North American Fruit Explorers (NAFEX) 2024 Virtual Conference, featuring three days of inspiring and informative online sessions for fruit growers, November 7-9, via ZOOM or by phone. Participate and ask questions in real time or watch the recorded sessions later.

The conference is open to fruit growers of all experience levels and will feature 8 sessions and 10 speakers over 3 days. Plan to join us!
