Beautiful day for the Pint Party Oyster Roast. Jammin' Cranberry Ginger and Maple Stout hard cider released today! Hidden Jules Organic Cafe food truck "The Rambler" served gorgeous foods while cafe co-owners, Aaron, Adam & friends rocked us through sundown!
This little guy visited us tonight! That makes 3 for the bear inventory on our side of the mountain this summer. (If all the other sightings have been of the same two). We'll call this one Lil' Hop!
Brought his companion today to audition for the new cider labels! Pig Iron
Sorry little fella to interrupt your apple-picking...Jeff had to drive by Pig [email protected]
Daily bear sightings this summer. This guy was snacking on apples near the forest entry, when sounds of a vehicle sent him [email protected] Pig Iron
Two black bears roaming for apples near the forest entrance in the morning (view from house desk window). Wish I'd captured the "standing and picking apple trick" that caught my eye! Afterwards, they loped into the cooler foliage towards the old spring for a sip. Same day at dusk, two deer appeared and also STOOD UP for apple picking! Word must've gotten out about them old cider apples! #vacider #cobblermountain #blackbears
Fiery Run on fire!

Jeff and Laura have restored the 90-acre property once purchased in 1959 by Laura's father for $100 an acre. Here is what led them here....
Lawrence Daniel McCarthy was a writer for the Associated Press after serving in the U.S. Coastguard. Living on a houseboat in the harbor, he was longing to have land around him and teach in the countryside. He found the farm... which reminded him of his County Cork, Ireland heritage... made a handshake deal with the gentleman farmer and got a teaching job in Marshall at the brick school (now the library). He became known as an activist for students with special needs. In 1967, he was asked to direct a facility in South Carolina. The job took Laura's parents away from the farm with plans to be back in three years. Once there, he was immediately driven to write a grant over the first year, seeking $1M funding from the government to build a state-of the art facility. After sending the proposal off, he did not sit still. One evening he and several recruited community members integrated the two schools, in preparation for all receive the benefits ahead. It was the peak of riot season, in the deep South, with a outgoing lad leading everyone. He was on a mission...which was cut short. One morning, Mr. McCarthy fell ill at school. He died that day of cardiac arrest at only 42. Over breakfast, he had told Laura's mother that he still felt, " He hadn't done enough". Little did he know... She got the news shortly after that the one million dollar grant HAD been awarded for the new facility. She also got news that Laura was on the way.
Mrs. McCarthy saw through the groundbreaking and then moved to the state's capital of Columbia to graduate school, all while taking care of her infant daughter and older toddler daughter. She raised the girls on her own, all while holding on to the land in Virginia to one day pass along to them. For forty years, she covered the taxes and checked on the farm during summer visits to see the Irish clan in the Metropolitan areas. Laura became attached to the beautiful mountain, the pastures, the four seasons and the wildlife. It was a dreamy notion to live here one day.
Laura met Jeff, a Cleveland, OH, native while he was serving in the Navy in SC. When they were first married, he created batches of handcrafted wines and ciders....while eventually took over the entire house, the garage, the basement, the pantry, the kitchen constantly....until she suggested he see the land where the could create a lifestyle and he would have MUCH MORE ROOM!
Cobbler Mountain~ Home to the "Little Winery That Could"~ is where the fairies live in big poplar trees, children run barefoot to Thumb Run Creek and stories of the wise Grandfathers and kind Grandmothers are shared around the Grand Fire Circle at the foot of the forest. A legendary dreamer, Grandfather McCarthy, discovered Big Cobbler Mountain in 1959. His love of creatures and exploring has been preserved and passed down to his children and grandchildren. Come hike a wooded trail. Open a bottle of imagination. Sip handcrafted wines with the makers. Find a little fantasy under the old apple tree. Who knows who you will meet along the way?
