On the back roads of Lyons, NY there is a cider mill that will soon be 100 years old. Gantz Cider Mill. $3.50 a gallon for the best cider you can buy in this beautiful apple country. Run by brothers Tom and Ed, the equipment to run the mill was originally purchased by their father in 1913.
wonderful photos - thank you! I have such great memories of growing up in Newark and going to Gantz's cider mill several times each fall for that fantastic cider. We used to get it in these beautiful heavy glass jugs that mom would wash out and return for a refill. thanks again!
