ALTAMONT, N.Y. (WNYT)- Indian Ladder Farms in Altamont is marking 10 years of its cidery and brewery. The cidery and brewery is celebrating its 10th anniversary after opening in 2016. Over the past decade, its beer and cider program has evolved by using apples grown in the farm’s orchard and by trying different varieties, ingredients and styles. Indian Ladder Farms has built an award-winning beverage program rooted in crops grown on the farm and across New York state. The farm said it opened the cidery and brewery as a way to celebrate what is grown locally and introduce people to what can come from New York agriculture. The farm said it is still experimenting, still learning and still finding new ways to turn what it grows into something people want to gather around and share.
