A small-batch organic farm cidery on Little Apple Farm — two NOFA-NY certified organic orchards in Hillsdale that owner Ron Bixby and family bought and restored from an abandoned, overgrown state starting in 1980. Hard cider production began in 2015, and the operation now celebrates 10 years of cider alongside 45 years of organic apple growing. Heirloom Northern Spy, Golden Russet, and Baldwin apples, supplemented by English and French cider varieties, are hand-picked, pressed, and fermented over a six-month season into single-varietal batches and small blends — all dry or semi-dry. The seasonal Orchard Bar serves cider by glass or flight Saturday and Sunday afternoons, May through November. Member of NYS Grown & Certified.
