What screams fall more than apple cider and donuts? Well that's why we're here at Uncle Johns Cider Mill to figure out what fun they have in store for the last couple weeks of October and how you can enjoy the rest of the season.
At uncle johns, there is plenty to enjoy, but this time of year, a few items are on everyone's mind.
"Donuts and the cider!" said one customer.
"I like the cider and donuts" said a couple others.
Those cider and donuts will bring a rush of people to uncle john's this fall.
"We're probably going to be close to a quarter-million visitors I'm sure." said President, Mike Beck.
And with that large number, Beck shares how they keep everything running smooth.
"If you're well prepared it shouldn't be too bad. We have more cash registers than any Walmart has." said Beck
Mike also says that the employees at Uncle Johns play a huge part in the cider mill experience and help in making sure that everything is ready to go for the busy season. And while donuts and cider are a hit every year, there is also one more big ticket item they put their focus on.
"We're making sure there are plenty of pumpkins around. You can come and still get your pumpkin, we have lots of pumpkins available," said Beck.
And if cider, donuts, and pumpkins aren't for you...
"Its a good time to connect with agriculture and nature and all that," said Beck.
Now cider, donuts and pumpkins all will be available until the late season so make sure you come and get yours.
The cider mill is open 7 days a week from 9am to 7pm.
