(MAPLEWOOD, NJ) – Apple cider was the favorite drink in this area in the 18 th and 19 th centuries, and many fields around Jefferson Village—now Maplewood—were planted with apple orchards. On Sunday, September 10 , the Durand-Hedden House & Garden, Maplewood's historical house museum, kicked off its first event of the year, 'Apple Cider-Making in Old Maplewood.' Activities focused around everything apple, including apple pressing, cider-making, apple tasting, old-fashioned apple games and crafts, exhibits and more.
