Peak Light 'Farm School' Cider, Sauvie Island, OR
The cider is a creation of collaboration and partnership with Wombat Flats Farm on Kiger Islan, Oregon. Notes of molasses and tilled loam soil with notes of chestnut and buckwheat honey, with a slightly bitter finish.
Peak Light Cider is a new project, recently launched by Sauvie Island farmers, Jen and Travis Lovejoy. For five years, the couple and their three children have been working the land on Columbia River’s largest island, just 10 miles northwest of downtown Portland, Oregon. Their home, Pivot Farm, references the change in their life upon moving to Sauvie, and their career pivot from educators, to farmers, to cider makers. The estate has more than 75 cultivars of apples, plums, pluots, pears, persimmon, and quince and follow biodynamic practices.
