This City Fruit cider from Greenwood Cider is made in partnership with one of our favorite nonprofits in the Seattle area: City Fruit. This easy-drinking cider is made of a diverse blend of community-sourced apples harvested by City Fruit's team.

City Fruit is a Seattle based non-profit that manages the "urban orchard" throughout Seattle. They provide tree care services and harvest from the bounty of fruit trees growing on public lands and private property throughout Seattle. The majority of the fruit that is harvested is then distributed to community meal programs throughout the city - including food banks, Fruit for All giveaways in each neighborhood in Seattle, student meal programs, and more. In a typical year, nearly 50,000 pounds of fruit that would otherwise go to waste is diverted to the community. A small percentage of the fruit harvested includes crabapples and cider apple varieties that aren't great for eating - but make incredible ciders. Those are purchased by a couple cideries in town, including Greenwood, who make delightful ciders like this one with the fruit. A delicious way to support a great organization and their efforts!

Proceeds from each bottle purchased result in a contribution to City Fruit by both Greenwood Cider, and by us.
