🍎 TRASH January Meeting: Wassailing & Cider Competition 🍻Kick off the new year with apples, tradition, and a little friendly competition! Our January TRASH meeting will celebrate all things cider with a special wassailing talk and our TRASH Cider Competition
🍏 Guest Speaker:
We’ll be joined by **Mike from A Few Bad Apples**, who will share the history and rituals of **wassailing** — the age-old tradition of blessing apple trees and celebrating the cider harvest — along with insights into making great cider at home.
🍎 Cider Competition Details:
We’re thrilled to host our TRASH Cider Competition, judged by BJCP-certified judges
If you participated in the Swope’s Farm cider buy, this is the perfect opportunity to showcase what you made! 🍾
But even if you didn’t take part in the cider buy, **any homemade cider is welcome to enter — the more the merrier!
👉 Sign up to enter your cider here: https://forms.gle/t3VHUepCKHe3HzxJ7
After the wassailing and competition, we’ll open things up for a homebrew share — so bring a few bottles or growlers of your latest beer, mead, or cider to pass around and enjoy with the group.
👀 What to Bring:
* Your cider entry (bottles or growlers)
* Questions for Mike about wassailing or cider making
* Homebrew to share after the competition
* A thirst for learning (and tasting!)
Come raise a glass, wake the apple trees, and celebrate the start of 2025 TRASH-style! 🍻🌳
