UNION – Visitors to the 45th annual Cider Fest will get an opportunity to step back in time with skilled artisans, a turn-of-the-century cider press, children’s activities, music and vintage items for sale.
Blacksmith Sam Johnson, flintknapper Richard Hamilton and broom maker Bob McCann will anchor this year’s festival, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 2, at the McHenry County Historical Museum in Union. Civil War re-enactor Chris Dosch – a Zouave with the 114th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment – will conduct demonstrations throughout the day.
