Wisconsin Foodie - Weston Antique Apple Orchard - Preview

In this episode of Wisconsin Foodie we travel to New Berlin, WI to visit one of Wisconsin’s original and most creative apple orchards, Westons Antique Apple Orchard. Westons Orchard treats the apples as art and prides themselves on over 120 unique varieties, some on the verge of extinction. We meet with Kenneth Weston, conductor of the Orchard, and hear his story of how he and his family fell in love with the Apple. Taking over for her father is Genevieve Weston, as she looks to find unique ways of distilling their unique apples. Genevieve decides to launch a spin off company selling single press cider and other products with local musician and cider maker Ethan Keller. Their business is called Sunnyslope. We then follow Sunnyslope to New Glarus Brewery to meet Brewmaster Dan Carey and delivery 100 gallons of cider. We also visit “Apple Sauced” an event hosted by Edible Milwaukee and MKE Foodies at Great Lakes Distillery.
