The fall Cider Squeeze is at Foster Phillip Farm 5 miles north of Estacada. This farm (640 acres then) was purchased in 1847 by Phillip Foster, one of Oregon's earliest settlers. Phillip developed this farm for the arrival of immigrants traveling the Barlow road...click HERE for a link to more fascinating history.
The Cider Squeeze is a festival that includes the making of alot of cider, there are many historical exhibits, crafters.....and yes .....kids playing old time music and fiddle.
Eileen's fiddle kids have a concert here each year...I have alot of great videos which I will be posting. I thought I would edit the videos together, but there are to many great ones to edit anything out...so we'll just get started with Summer and Isaaiah playing the Flat Mountain Girl version of "Say Darlin' Say" which they learned by ear from the recording...and practiced together with friends and family in front of the fireplace at Summer's House.
