Travel & Vacation: Cold Hollow Cider Mill Tour (Waterbury, VT)

Apple Cider Mill

On the way back to the airport we made a stop at the Cold Hollow Cider Mill in Waterbury, Vermont.  We were hoping to do a tour but we didn’t time it quite right.  It was really great going through the apple cider mill.  The girls had a lot of fun following the apples to the cider press, seeing all the cool machines, reading about the process, and drinking the homemade apple cider.

Welcome to the Cold Hollow Cider Mill!

The girls loved watching the bees make honey

The girls thought this sign was hilarious

Oh Karlie!  We got a sample of goat milk lotion, when she pushed the pump it wouldn’t come out so I tapped it and it came shooting out all over her face (it must of been a little clogged).  Always something to laugh about!  Thankful for an opportunity to explore with the family on our trip.

The “Travel and Vacation” series is an insight into our trips together as a family and ways we relax.  Life is short and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to build memories with family and explore of of the most amazing places during our time away.  Explore with a good attitude, look for fun, and it will be an awesome trip jammed packed with positive memories.  It is refreshing having some time away from the regular routine.  Make it a once in a lifetime opportunity to meet new people and learn.  You just might see or try something new that takes your breath away!
