Sweet
Cider
Celebration

Coles Roberts demonstrates an apple peeling machine at the New Jersey Museum of Agriculture’s Sweet Cider Celebration on Sunday in North Brunswick. At the family program celebrating this year’s bountiful crop of Jersey fresh apples, participants learned all about apples, including their history in New Jersey. The program included an amazing collection of apple-peeling gadgets and gizmos in action, showing how apples become sweet cider, spicy apple butter and other treats.  | Peggy Leifeste assists Yeshana Lewitter, 7, with an apple press during the noon to 4 p.m. program at the New Jersey Museum of Agriculture, which is located on the campus of Rutgers Cook College in North Brunswick.
