Pressing Apples yonder Owermoigne sire!

If you have apple trees and end up with a glut at the end of the summer making cider is a brilliant way to make some brilliant use of them rather than leave them to rot. Dorset Foodie Jo Stockley gathered her troops last autumn and put them to work at Owermoigne Cider Mill, Owermoigne, Dorset.


Gather the apples...


Throw them in the crusher and give it some welly!



Move the crushed apples to the press...


Put the lid on and give it some more welly...




The end product is beautiful organic fresher than fresh apple juice bursting with vitamins... It can be drunk immediately or made into cider....
