The perfect pairing of Cider &Music meet again to celebrate the colors of fall in the center of Washington Ciderhouses from Puget Sound,Wenatchee,Yakima and around the region will bring enough varieties to make the most experienced taster swoon.Four live bands,Bluegrass to Folk to Americana,will own the outdoor stage. WindFall is an event for ages 21 and up.ID is required. WindFall is the grandest gathering of Cider in Central Washington.Twelve cider houses will be doing their best to impress.Each cider house will bring two or three varieties for tasting.From dry to sweet to hopped to fruited,herbed or flowered, there's a cider for everyone.Local restaurants and concessions will offer plentiful handy food for every taste.Beer,wine and soft drinks will also be available. Four live bands,not entirely traditional,but deeply rooted."And Roots Music" means Bluegrass-Americana-Folk will light up the Western Town courtyard stage and bring an energetic concert to WindFall.In 2019 we welcomed: Head for the Hills from Boulder,Co.,Fort Defiance from Nashville,Young Feller from Leavenworth,and EIIensburg's own Killdeer String Band. We are fortunate to work with veteran music festival producers and add the Chinook "Where Great Music Meets the Great Outdoors"experience to the event. Though our event for 2019 won't have happened by the grant due date,it is well planned and hitting the timeline.Ticket sales are brisk.Additional information can be made available shortly after Oct.5. As the largest fundraiser for KEEN,this event will continue to showcase central Washington at the height of the fall season.Hard cider is the nation's fastest growing beverage and that industry continues to growand gain fans around the region.Ciderhouses are now asking WindFall if they may attend.Musicians are asking WindFall how they can get a chance on the stage.Community members are asking how they can get involved.
