They pitched the yeast for Buskey's first cider on March 16, 2016

2 - 30 barrels tank pitched with one strain
4- 15 barrel tanks all have different strains
3- 4.2 barrel tanks for specialty ciders

Opening date is expect in late April when they hope to be serving the first cider to the public. They are working towards a 20-24 day production time.
