The 2020 Apple Season

 

Based on what we now know about the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19), the majority of us believe the risk to the health of our patrons and our volunteers is too great to operate the Community Apple Press this season. We will continue to monitor the situation over the upcoming months, but because the health of our volunteers and patrons is our highest consideration, we think it is unlikely things will change.

We are exploring several options for those of us with more apples than we can consume fresh at home, such as donations to those who need fresh apples, as well as pressing backyard apples in bulk. We are also looking for ways to continue to support the apple farmers of Sonoma County. We will post details of these programs as details firm up.
