About the Cider Hill Farm 5K Fall Run
The course winds through a working farm on dirt roads, gravel paths, and grassy fields, with several steep hills that make this a genuine effort. Fruit trees, orchards, berry bushes, beehives, and vegetable gardens line the route. Photographers are posted throughout, and volunteers keep you on track along the way.
Packet pickup runs the afternoon before at the farm itself. Race morning, parking is free with attendants to guide you in. Afterward, the farm pours apple cider and hard cider, and there are donuts, live music, and the farm itself to wander through with kids.
