CONNECT WITH THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE CIDER

 

CIDER INSTITUTE COMMUNITY

 

Join a global community of cider producers, professionals, and enthusiasts sharing knowledge, resources, experiences, and ideas from across the industry.

The Cider Institute Community gives subscribers a dedicated place to connect with one another beyond courses, webinars, and events. Ask questions, exchange information, discover useful resources, meet other producers, and take part in conversations happening across the cider community.

Community access is included with every Cider Institute subscription.

A GLOBAL PEER COMMUNITY FOR CIDER

 

Cidermaking happens in different regions, climates, businesses, production environments, and traditions.

The Cider Institute Community creates a shared space where those perspectives can meet.

This is not another course or formal educational program. It is a peer forum designed to make it easier for people throughout the cider industry to find one another, exchange knowledge, share useful information, and continue building connections across the field.  

Whether you have a question, a resource to recommend, an experience worth sharing, or simply want to meet more people working with cider, the community gives you a place to start the conversation.

WHO IS THE COMMUNITY FOR?

FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE CIDER INDUSTRY

The Cider Institute Community is available to all Cider Institute subscribers, regardless of subscription level.  

It brings together people with different levels of experience and different relationships to cider, including individual producers, cider enthusiasts, people working within cideries, and members of larger teams. The Cider Institute subscription itself is designed to support home producers, small cideries, and larger teams.  

You do not need to come into the community with the same experience, production scale, or perspective as everyone else.

That is part of the value.

A question from one producer may lead to a useful discussion for many others. A resource used in one cidery may help someone working somewhere completely different. A conversation may introduce you to a producer, colleague, or perspective you would not otherwise have encountered.

WHY JOIN THE COMMUNITY?


CONNECT. EXCHANGE. DISCOVER.

 

The cider industry is built on shared knowledge, practical experience, and relationships. The Cider Institute Community gives you a place to stay connected to that wider network and take part in conversations that extend beyond your own cidery, region, or day-to-day work.

Whether you are looking for another perspective on a production challenge, a useful resource, insight from someone with a different background, or simply a way to stay connected to what others in the industry are thinking about, the community gives you a place to find it.

It is a space to ask questions, exchange ideas, discover new resources, and build relationships with people who understand the opportunities and challenges of working with cider and perry.

The more members contribute their experiences, questions, and knowledge, the more useful the community becomes for everyone.

Stay Connected Between Sessions

Continue the conversation between live classes, share observations, and stay connected with your cohort as you build on what you are learning throughout the week.

Learn From Other Producers

Learn from classmates with different backgrounds, production environments, experiences, and perspectives, and see how others apply course concepts in real-world settings.

Ask Questions As They Come Up

Bring questions into the community whenever they arise, explore course concepts, and continue conversations sparked during live class sessions.

Share Useful Resources

Share helpful articles, industry reports, tools, events, technical references, and cidermaking resources that can support the learning of your entire cohort.

Build Your Professional Network

Connect with fellow students across the cider and perry industry, exchange knowledge, and build professional relationships that can continue beyond the classroom.

A COMMUNITY BUILT AROUND EXCHANGE

  

The Foundation Community is here to support your learning, not give you another platform to keep up with. You do not need to post every week or participate in every conversation to benefit from it.

Use the community when you have a question, when you want to continue a discussion from class, when you have something useful to share, or when you want to hear how someone else approaches a similar challenge. The more you engage with your cohort, the more opportunities you have to connect what you are learning with the real-world experiences of others in the cider and perry industry.

Most importantly, it gives you a place to stay connected with the people learning alongside you and to continue the conversation beyond the classroom.

JOIN THE CIDER INSTITUTE COMMUNITY

KEEP LEARNING. KEEP SHARING. KEEP CONNECTING.

 

The cider industry grows through the knowledge, experience, and relationships of the people working within it.

The Cider Institute Community gives those people a place to find one another.

Join the community to exchange ideas, discover resources, meet fellow producers, and stay connected to the wider cider industry wherever you are.
