GROWLER-DAY BASICS ...
Outside of fall retail season, we pick a Thursday or a Saturday each month for growler customers to get their refills (or new fills!). To learn exact dates you need to join the email list: just write HERE.
July Growler Day will probably/not definitely be on a Saturday afternoon but we can't schedule a whole month ahead.) See basic info below!
Don't worry, we're not chatty, pushy, or spammy.
And you can get off the list instantly by emailing us to take out your name.

Growlers are re-fillable half-gallon jugs that you can bring up the hill for filling on - no surprise - Growler Days. We try for at least one Growler Day a month through the year.
Most are on Thursdays, some are on Saturdays.
Feel free to wander around in the orchards!
Basic facts 1-7:
1. Bring any suitable half-gallon jugs to fill with our dry, delicious Farnum Hill orchard ciders (7.5% alcohol by volume). You don't have to buy our growlers. If you have bigger containers divisible into half-gallons, that's fine.
2. Refills on Growler Day cost $10/half-gallon.
3. New growlers cost $3.50 apiece - that's our cost.
4. We pour tastes of all the growler batches available.
5. We also do tastes/sales of Farnum Hill pre-bottled/canned ciders: Extra Dry, Extra Dry Still, and Farmhouse.
6. FHC bottles & cans are always found in Hanover-Lebanon local co-ops. Extra Dry bottles in Lebanon & New London Hannafords and Price Choppers.
7 We can take credit cards, VENMO, checks or cash on Growler Days.

(You may know that, across the world, many many cider orchards sell most or all of their ciders to neighbors who bring their own containers - this is an old, old practice.)
On monthly growler days, you can taste through whatever we have on offer and choose your refill(s). Most people have one or a few containers they bring in for refills. A few people stock up seriously every several months... one customer brings 16 growlers!
What's a growler? It's a re-fillable half-gallon jug, usually glass with a handle on the neck. Some customers bring gallon or 1.5 gallon containers... just bring something that divides evenly into half-gallons!
Off-season Growler Days are never busy, people often hang out, take walks through the orchards
And of course the bottles (Extra Dry), and cans ("Farmhouse") are also available up here. Delicious for any occasion, (also, prime gifts for people with wide-awake palates). They're also available in NH liquor stores & Co-op Food Stores. Our Extra Dry Still bottles can be found at an extremely good price in local Price Choppers and Hannafords. (We're sold out of the 1.5 Liter "bagnums" of Extra Dry Still.)
