2020 Winter Conference POSTPONED

COVID-19 UPDATE

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Minnesota Cider Guild Board has made the difficult decision to postpone the upcoming Winter Conference and annual meeting. We are optimistic that we will be able to schedule the gathering and share a cider together once again sooner rather than later.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns. We wish you all good health and positivity during these trying times.

Mark your calendars for the Minnesota Cider Guild’s Annual Winter Conference taking place Saturday, March 28 from 2:30-7 pm at Number 12 Cider in Minneapolis.
