Becoming Pomona was recorded at the 25th Franklin County CiderDays in November of 2019.
The goal of this pomona panel discussion was to share personal stories on the inspirational effect of CiderDays on women in the cider industry, specifically the following women:
- CiderDays co-founder Judith Maloney of West County Cider. Judith was crowned Queen Pomona the night prior to this panel discussion
- Autumn Stoscheck – Eve’s Cidery
- Ria Windcaller – Cider Chat & Totally Cider Tours
- April Woodard – Panel moderator, Cidermaker, and CiderDays Committee
April moderated this talk, with Judith speaking first, then Autumn, Ria and April.
Below are two 2 Key quotes from Judith on CiderDays and Cider that absolutely says it all:
Referring back to CiderDays.
“People loved their cider no matter what it tasted like.”
And on the impact of this event moving forward,
“We created more than something that is drunk – it is in the spirit.”
In 2020, due to the coronavirus 19, a Cider Trail was created for western Massachusetts and the Berkshires. The trail extended the offerings that usually took place just on one weekend expanding it over October into the new year.
