Wild & Tame Apples of Carr's Ciderhouse

Jonathan Carr and Nicole Blum

Nicole Blum and Jonathan Carr's first date was at a Creperie in San Franciso and as fate planned it, they drank cider. The two live in Ireland for a bit, where Jonathan was born for a spell and even planted a a few apple trees. Fate again had other plans and they found their way back to the states to settle in Hadley, Massachusetts. There they have both a working farm, what they call "Preservation Orchard" at Carr's Ciderhouse and a large rack and cloth press in the barn overlooking the Connecticut River Valley.
