Have you tried the Suter cider slushy?

All the fun this fall is on Road R, Pandora
Posted by Fred Steiner on September 25, 2017 - 4:35pm

Lots of photos and a video below -
What will they think of next, out there on Road R (aside from apple cider, apples and pumpkins)?

First, there was a corn maze – maybe they invented the entire concept. Next came all sorts of activities for kids – like playing in a “corn” sandbox. Soon after that came the cannon where you shoot corn at targets.

There’s more, but I can’t name everything. Oh, I forgot the kettle corn-popping machine and if you watch the video with this story you’ll figure it out.
