Make your own cider: Cider Press RentalThere is truly nothing like fresh-pressed apple or pear cider! We’re looking to spread the joy of pressing cider to the Boulder community by renting out our top-notch cider press and fruit grinder this year. We’ll provide you with all the equipment necessary for pressing and catching the juice - all you need is the fruit and a couple friends to help you transport the equipment, manage the press & grinder, and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Get involved with our Harvest Program
Through our community fruit harvests, we rescue the often overlooked fruit growing throughout Boulder that would otherwise fall to the ground and go to waste. Once harvested, the fruit is distributed to food insecure individuals & families, CFR's volunteer pickers & tree stewards, and made into shelf-stable preserves. Even the non-edible grade fruit is rescued and donated to animal sanctuaries!
