Help ASA bring home the Wild Cider Cup!

We’re thrilled to share that the Agricultural Stewardship Association has been invited to compete in Nine Pin Cider’s Wild Cider Cup—a one-of-a-kind tasting event supporting local land conservation efforts!

Our cider, "Working Lands: First Press", was crafted from over 1,200lbs of hand-harvested wild, uncultivated apples across protected farms and forests in Washington and Rensselaer Counties. (A huge THANK YOU to our volunteers who helped harvest last Fall!)

Pressed into a crisp, well-balanced cider that captures the character of the land, Working Lands: First Press reflects our region’s deep agricultural heritage and thoughtful stewardship—bright, structured, and rooted in place.

On May 17, you can:
• Taste unique “wild” ciders from five local conservancies
• Vote for your favorite (we hope it’s ours! wink, wink!)
• Support the protection of farms, forests, and open space

Your ticket includes a commemorative tasting glass + samples of all five ciders—and every sip supports conservation!

Let’s show up strong for ASA and celebrate the lands that sustain us.

We’d love to see you there!

Purchase your tickets here.
