Sipping on Chai Cider šŸŽšŸ‚ Our trip to the Lane County Farmer's Market


There’s nothing quite like fall in Eugene. Crisp air, colorful leaves, and a beautiful, abundant fall harvest from our local farms. We had such a wonderful time coming down to the Taste of Autumn event at the Lane County Farmers Market! It was wonderful to connect with local vendors, to learn about cider pressing, and try out the many types of apples you can grow.

Check out our recap video for the full experience!

Between the rows of fresh produce and woven baskets spilling over with red and orange squash, we found ourselves sipping on fresh cider from a beautiful, locally made apple press. Of course, we couldn’t resist adding a scoop of Blue Lotus Chai for that perfect kick of masala spice!
